Who reacts with metal bases or acids?
Acids react with metals. Metals are themselves basic in nature. Metals displaces hydrogen from acids to liberate hydrogen gas.
How Most acids are sour and corrode metals.?
Most acids are sour and corrode metals.
What are the 2 types of substances?
I'm a bit confused on the question, there are alot more than two types of substances in existence. If your asking about the Reactivity of substances they are broken into two categories, Acids and Bases. Acids have a ph of 6 or lower. Bases have a ph of 8 or higher. Neutrals have a ph of 7. A neutral is eather pure, clean water, or a mixture of both acid and base that balance out the ph of the substance.
What metals will react more violently than aluminum with hydrochloric acid?
Magnesium, Calcium and Sodium react violently with acids as compare to Aluminium.
Do acids make hydrogen when they react with some metals?
When acids react with metals they can produce hydrogen.
Why are metals resistant to acids?
This depends on the chemical reactivity of the metal (position on the reativity series).
What substances might react as a group to metals?
For example acids.
Are acids reactive substances?
yes acids are reactive. im teaching year 9 acids and bases and they are doing a prac about reactivity of acids, so yes they are but to different degrees sorry i cant be more help
What metals do not react with an acids?
Copper, Mercury, Platinum, Silver, Gold. check the reactivity series, it may help.
What is the affect of acid on different types of metals?
It really depends on the type of acid and the metal. Metals like gold and platinum (and others metals which are called the noble metals) are impervious to acids except for aqua regia which is a mixture of hydrochloric and nitric acids. Some metals like copper won't react with acids unless there is also an oxidizer present like hydrogen peroxide and then some metals like zinc will react with most acids readily.
Describe a substance which will react with both acids and alkalis to form a salt and water?
Such substances are semi-metals as Zn,Sn and Al , and their oxides, such substances are known as Amphoteric.
What makes acids wear away metals?
Acids can react with metals.
What are some chemical properties for neptunium?
- valences of neptunium: 3 to 7- Pauling reactivity: 1,36- as a powder is pyrophoric- can react with the majority of non metals- react with acids- it is easily oxidized
What is a property of minerals?
A definite chemical composition
What is the most reactive metal and the most reactive nonmetal?
Actually, like human nature is dominant of on another. In the same way, metals and non-metals are also dominant over one another. The metals and non-metals have a tendency of displacing another metal or non-metal from its salt solution or any other compound. According to this property of theirs, they are classified as more or less reactive.
Who reacts with metal bases or acids?
Acids react with metals. Metals are themselves basic in nature. Metals displaces hydrogen from acids to liberate hydrogen gas.
How Most acids are sour and corrode metals.?
Most acids are sour and corrode metals.
