There are several metals which do not react with sulfuric acid; once such metal is gold.
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.
Acid reacting with metal
Copper is a metal element. It is not reacting with ammonia.
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.
The reaction for this problem is as follows: H2SO4 + Zn ---> H2 + ZnSO4

Acid reacting with metal
Yes, because the oxide in the air and the water reacting with the metal causes it to rust. It is irreversible so it is classed as a chemical reaction. :D

Magnesium is the metal. Sulfuric acid is a compound.

Hydrogen. Acid plus metal is always hydrogen.
I don't understand: copper is NOT colorless. It has a redish brown, shiny metal color. It will change color after reaction with sulfuric acid, giving the blue copper sulfate color, which is easily dissolved in rain water and washed of.
This reaction yields zinc sulphate and hydrogen gas.
Yes. It is the effect of the metal atoms reacting chemically with oxygen atoms in the air.
