You will probably want a plastic tank of some kind. If you have to use metal, you might be able to line it with wax or some kind of plastic liner.

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.


Why is it bad to use sodium and hydrochloric acid to make sodium chloride?

if you were to put sodium metal into hydrochloric acid i would suggest that you wear a full hazmat suit and bomb disposal gear. sodium metal is highly reactive and so is hydrochloric acid, mixing the two would produce a fairly large explosion. if you wish to create sodium chloride i suggest that you attempt a less dangerous route such as the slow addition of hydrochloric acid to a moderately dilute sodium hydroxide solution, this would still get quite hot so be careful.
