What is produced when a acid reacts with a metal
hydrogen
the metal dissolves
Acid reacting with metal
There are several metals which do not react with sulfuric acid; once such metal is gold.
A salt. The type of salt depends on the type of acid.
No, not strictly speaking. Sulfuric acid is a mineral acid. It is made by reacting Sulfur Trioxide with water. Sulfur Trioxide IS a non-metal oxide.

Having the characteristics of an acid and a base and capable of reacting chemically either as an acid or a base.
No, not strictly speaking. Sulfuric acid is a mineral acid. It is made by reacting Sulfur Trioxide with water. Sulfur Trioxide IS a non-metal oxide.

Potassium is too reactive to mix with acid
No, not strictly speaking. Sulfuric acid is a mineral acid. It is made by reacting Sulfur Trioxide with water. Sulfur Trioxide IS a non-metal oxide.
In general, acids react with metals in a replacement reaction, since metals can replace the hydrogen component of the acid. The more electropositive the metal is, and the stronger the acid it, the more energetic the reaction will be, and in the case of magnesium reacting with hydrochloric acid, we have a highly electropositive metal reacting with a very strong acid.
Na2HPO4, Na3PO4,NaH2PO4
Nitric acid is a strong oxidizing agent and its molecule is unstable as compare to nitrogen oxides, on reacting with metals it gives hydrogen and oxygen both so water is produced instead of hydrogen.
it is because hydrogen gas usually liberates when an acid reacts with metal
