Why metal oxide are amphoteric in nature?
according to acid base definations base is such thing which accept proton easily.in metal oxides ,metal has ability to give proton and oxygen has ability to accept it.both are strong conjugat acid and base.so the metal oxides are amphoteric in nature.
What happens if an acid reacts with a metal?
It depends what acid or metal it is but usually they either give of a gas, increase temperature or give off effervescence.
Why carbonic acid gives acid salt but hydrochloric acid does not?
Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is a strong acid, and when reacted with a strong base will give a neutral salt. When reacted with a weak base it will give an acid salt. Example, HCl + NH3 => NH4Cl.Carbonic acid (H2CO3) is a weak acid and is actually CO2 + H2O. When reacted with a strong base, it will give an alkaline salt and when reacted with a weak base will give a solution the pH of which will depend on the Kb and Ka of the reactants.
Is HC2H3O2 ionic or covelant?
Write it as CH3COOH and it is obvious this a carboxylic acid- ethanoic or acetic acid. This is covalent but dissociates in water to give H+ (aq) and acetate ion.
Give a chemical formula for a strong acid?
Hydrochloric acid: HCl Sulfuric acid: H2SO4 Nitric acid: HNO3 Hydrobromic acid: HBr Perchloric acid: HClO4

Is glacial acetic acid soluble in sodium hydroxide?
Glacial acetic acid reacts with sodium hydroxide to give sodium acetate and water CH3COOH + NaOH = CH3COONa + H2O
Explain of one strong and weak acid and give their uses?
strong acid- hydrochloric acid - used for digestion as a secretion of stomach weak acid- citric acid - used for maintaining salts in body
Which metal reacts to give zinc sulphate with sulfuric acid?
gold and platinum
Is bleach a strong acid?
NO, it is a strong base
How do you make Camphor?
Camphor can be produced from alpha-pinene, which is abundant in the oils of coniferous trees and can be distilled from turpentine produced as a side product of chemical pulping. With acetic acid as the solvent and with catalysis by a strong acid, alpha-pinene readily rearranges into camphene, which in turn undergoes Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement into the isobornyl cation, which is captured by acetate to give isobornyl acetate. Hydrolysis into isoborneol followed by oxidation gives racemiccamphor. By contrast, camphor occurs naturally as D-camphor, the (R)-enantiome
Do metal react with acid to yield carbon dioxide gas?
no metal can not react with acid to give Carbondioxide gas but a hydrogen gas HCl + Na-------->NaCl(s) + H(g)
Doeds acid and metal react to give off oxygen?
NO!!!! The general chemical reaction for acids and metals. is Acid + Metal = Salt + Hydrogen (NOT Oxygen). e.g. 2HCl + Zn = ZnCl2 + H2
