What happens when metal and acid?
Acid + Metal = Salt + Hydrogen
What kind of atoms are covalent bonds?
Atoms do not have covalent bonds, they form them. A covalent bond is typically non-metal to non-metal, and hydrogen is considered a non meteal
What happens when you mix an acid and a metal?
Hydrogen, H2, and a salt are formed.
How do atoms create a bond?
Atoms create a bond many different ways. Covalent bonds - only happens between nonmetals. The atoms share electrons. Ionic bonds - only happens between a nonmetal and a metal. One atom takes the other atom's electron(s). Hydrogen bonds - only happens between hydrogen and fluorine, nitrogen, or oxygen. Polar Covalent Bonds - this is a type of bond between ionic and covalent bonds. The atoms don't share or take the electron. The electron is shared but one atom has more control of it. Metallic bonds - only between metals. Electrons form a shared cloud, not in a molecule, but shared by all the metal atoms in a given object.
What happens when calcium metal is added to a dilute solution of hydrochloric acid?
it produces hydrogen
Why does the pH of water change after a reaction with an alkali metal?
Yes, the pH increases because the alkali metal atoms replace some hydrogen ions in the water with alkali metal ions.
How many atoms are in the element hydrogen?
Hydrogen is a non metal element. Atomic Mass of it is 1.
What is the oxidation number of hydrogeon when it is combined with a metal?
Hydrogen is a non metal. Metals are electropositive than hydrogen. Therefore, hydrogen atoms in metal hydrides have oxidation number -1.
Non-metal do not replace hydrogen from acid why?
because metal contain positive ions and hydrogen too
What happens when metal and acid?
Acid + Metal = Salt + Hydrogen
what usually happens when a metal reacts with a nonmetal?
electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms forming ions resulting in an ionic compound
What kind of atoms are covalent bonds?
Atoms do not have covalent bonds, they form them. A covalent bond is typically non-metal to non-metal, and hydrogen is considered a non meteal
What happens to the atoms in a metal when it is stretched?
They break up and reform
What happens when you mix an acid and a metal?
Hydrogen, H2, and a salt are formed.
What happens to the outermost levels of metal atoms in a metallic bond?
They OVERLAP

What happens when two non metal atoms ionize?
generally anions are formed
