What is the type of reaction between metal oxide and hydrochloric acid?
that would be a acid-metal oxide reaction see related link for more info
What type of a reaction occurs when potassium metal reacts with fluorine gas?
synthesis reaction
Observed product from the reaction of Iron II chloride and potassium carbonate?
Ther is no reaction that occurs because potassium is a more active metal and cannot be displaced by the iron (a weaker metal)
Predict and choose the most correct products formed from the reaction between iron III oxide and potassium metal?
3k20+2fe
What type of reaction occurs when potassium metal reacts with fluorine gas?
It is basically a REDOX reaction. Extremely reactive in this case
Why wouldn't you use potassium to make potassium chloride?
The reaction between potassium and hydrochloric acid is very violent, even explosive. On contact with the acid the reaction rapidly releases heat and hydrogen gas, which ignites. This in turn sets the potassium on fire. When this happens the potassium may explode, scattering flaming molten globules of metal.

Is magnesium and hydrochloric acid an acid-base reaction?
No, it is a single displacement reaction. It can also be called a redox reaction. It is not an acid base reaction because although hydrochloric acid is obviously and acid, magnesium is a metal, not a base.
If you added potassium to hydrochloric acid would it produce pottasium salt?
If you added potassium to hydrochloric acid, it would produce potassium chloride (a potassium salt) and hydrogen gas as in the equation below:2K(s) + 2HCl(aq) --> 2KCl(aq) + H2 (g)This reaction is the same for all metals.Acid + Metal = Metal salt + Hydrogen gasOther reactions:Adding an acid to a metal hydroxide gives a metal salt and water.Adding an acid to a metal carbonate give a metal salt and carbon dioxide gas.
What happens if magnesium is added to hydrochloric acid is a singlereplacement reaction?
Yes, when magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid it is a single replacement reaction. The same is true for nearly all cases of a reaction between an acid and a metal.
If you used hydrochloric acid and metal would the reaction have been the same if you had used sulfuric?
Given the general equation:acid + metal ---> salt + waterSo, the only difference between a reaction with a metal and hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid is the salt formed, a chloride and a sulfate respectively.
What are the products formed from the reaction between iron III oxide and potassium metal?
3K2O + 2Fe
What metal reacts steadily with hydrochloric acid?
either potassium, sodium, zinc, iron or copper !
What type of a reaction occurs when potassium metal reacts with fluorine gas?
synthesis reaction
What sodium metal reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce salt and hydrogen gas what are the reactants in this chemical reaction?
The reactants in this reaction are sodium (Na) and hydrochloric acid (HCl).
Observed product from the reaction of Iron II chloride and potassium carbonate?
Ther is no reaction that occurs because potassium is a more active metal and cannot be displaced by the iron (a weaker metal)
What gas is formed when hydrochloric acid and magnesium are mixed?
The reaction produces hydrogen gas as will most reaction between an acid and a metal.
