Yes, but in a glass container as it can corrode metals and leak out of an Iron container
Does hydrochloric acid need air to react with iron?
No, hydrochloric acid does not need air to react with iron. When hydrochloric acid reacts with iron, you will notice the reaction because of the bubbling.
A piece of iron is placed in hydrochloric acid what are the products?
When a piece of iron is placed in hydrochloric acid, the products are Iron (II) chloride and hydrogen gas.
What acid eats iron?
Hydrochloric acid does a superior job of 'eating' iron.

Word equation for hydrochloric acid and iron?
2HCl + Fe → FeCl2 + H2 Hydrochloric acid + Iron → Iron (II) Chloride + Hydrogen gas
What substances are formed when iron is added to hydrochloric acid?
Fe + 2HCl → FeCl2 + H2↑Iron + Hydrochloric acid → Iron II chloride + Hydrogen gas
Does iron react with dilute hydrochloric acid?
yes
What is Word equations of reaction of magnesium and iron with hydrochloric acid?
Magnesium(s) + Iron(s) + HCl(aq) -> MagnesiumChloride(aq) + Hydrogen(g) + Iron(s)Iron will not react with hydrochloric acid as magnesium is more reactive than iron , so magnesium will react with hydrochloric acid to give salt and hydrogen gas while iron is deposited.METAL + ACID -> METAL SALT + HYDROGEN GAS
Can you store copper chloride in an iron vessel?
Emphatically no! Iron or steel will rapidly dissolve in hydrochloric acid generating hydrogen gas. Even stainless steel is not very good for containing hydrochloric acid. Chloride ions are highly corrosive and cause normal grades of stainless to pit and crack. The best bet (besides avoiding it altogether) is glass (as it is stored in a laboratory) or plastic - PVC, polyethylene, or polypropylene.
Is the reaction of iron with hydrochloric acid a chemical change?
yes
What is the word equation of iron oxide plus hydrochloric acid?
iron chloride+water
