The gas evolved is hydrogen. Zinc is more reactive than hydrogen and hence when sulphuric acid is added to zinc , formation of zinc sulphate starts and hydrogen starts
evolving. The reaction is :-
Zn + H2SO4 --------> ZnSO4 + H2

∙ 15y agoOn heating zinc sulphate (ZnSO4), both sulphur dioxide (SO2) and sulphur trioxide (SO3) are released. As a matter of fact, this is what always happens when sulphates are heated. Mind you, the decomposition of sulphites (SO32- )only releases sulphur dioxide!

If zinc is first added to dilute sulfuric acid then concentrated sulfuric acid and acetic acid in which case will the fizzing be most and least?
The most fizzing will come from the concentrated sulfuric acid, then dilute sulfuric acid, then the acetic acid.The amount of fizzing is due to the concentration of H+ in the solution, and concentrated sulfuric acid has the most H+ in solution. The dilute sulfuric acid has less (because it is dilute) and the acetic acid solution has the least of all because it is a weak acid rather than a strong acid.See the Related Questions for more information.
What happens when dilute sulfuric acid is added over zinc granules?
coz when we dilute zinc granules are reacted with dilute HCl (hydrochloric acid), zinc chloride i.e. ZnCl2 is formed along with the evolution of hydrogen gas H2. the presence of hydrogen gas can be tested by bringing a naked flame to the mouth of the test tube. Hydrogen gas burns with a pop sound.
What is the word equation for zinc carbonate reacting with dilute sulfuric acid?
Zinc + Sulphuric acid ----> Zinc sulphate + Hydrogen I think that's the answer. If it isn't, then sorry. I got the answer from... http://www.docbrown.info/page04/Y11revQs/acidreactionequationsFHanswers.htm

solid is it?
What would happen if you added zinc carbonate to sulfuric acids?
You would produce zinc sulphate, carbon dioxide and water.
