Does zinc react with citric acid?

Citric acid causes two chemical reactions with zinc- oxidation and reduction. Oxidation is where the acid removes the two electrons on the outer energy shell of each zinc atom. Reduction is where the hydrogen ions in the citric acid accept the electrons being released by the oxidation reaction and form the hydrogen gas. Hope this helps :)


Does titanium react with hydrocloric acid?

No, not at room temperature. It does react with hot hydrochloric acid to form a complex ion with the titanium in the +3 oxidation state but this is not the standard Metal + Acid -> Salt + Hydrogen reaction of more reactive metals


How does hydrogen react differently then halogen?

The halogens react with hydrogen to form; Hydrogen + Chlorine = Hydrogen Chloride Hydrogen + Bromine = Hydrogen Bromide Hydrogen + Fluorine = Hydrogen Fluoride etc When these products are dissolved in water they form monobasic acids; Hydrogen Cholride --> Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) Hydrogen Bromide --> Hydrobromic Acid (HBr) Hydrogen Fluoride --> Hydrofluoric Acid (HF) etc


What metals react with water and acid?

Many transition metals will react with acids to form a salt and hydrogen gas. For example, zinc will react with hydrochloric acid to form the black-colored solid zinc chloride and hydrogen. The formula is: Zn+2HCl-->ZnCl2+H2. The group 1 and 2 metals will often react with water, sometimes explosively. Sodium reacts with water to produce sodium hydroxide and hydrogen. The formula is: 2Na+2H2O-->2NaOH+H2. The reactivity series of metals (see wikipedia -Reactivity series) shows a list of the metals that react.


What is the chemical name for H2SO2?

If the compound is aqueous (or dissolved in water) then the chemical name is sulfuric acid. If it is in its gaseous form then it is hydrogen sulfate H2SO2 is called hyposulfurous acid.
