It depends on the acid. Many acids do, such as acetic acid (CH3CO2H), sulfuric acid (H2SO4), and hypochlorous acid(HClO).

But a number of other acids do not contain oxygen, such as hydrocyanic acid (HCN), Hydrochloric acid (HCl), and fluoroboric acid (HBF4)

Do acids and metals react to make oxygen?

Acids can react with metals to produce hydrogen gas, not oxygen. When acids react with metals, they displace hydrogen gas from the acid.


Is hcl react with oXYGEN?

No, hydrochloric acid (HCl) does not react with oxygen (O2). Oxygen is generally not reactive with acids such as HCl.


What is magnesium reactive with?

Magnesium is reactive with oxygen, water, and acids. It can react vigorously with oxygen to form magnesium oxide, with water to form magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas, and with acids to form magnesium salts and hydrogen gas.


Do acids react with alkalis in a combustion reaction?

No, acids and alkalis do not react in a combustion reaction. Combustion reactions involve a substance reacting with oxygen to produce heat and light. Acids and alkalis typically do not react in this way.


What does samarium react with?

Samarium can react with oxygen, water, and acids to form various compounds. It can also react with halogens such as chlorine and bromine to form halides.


What else can copper react with besides oxygen?

Copper can also react with sulfur, chlorine, and acids to form different compounds.


How do metals of medium reactivity react well with?

Metals of medium reactivity can react well with acids, water, and oxygen. They tend to corrode or rust when exposed to oxygen in the atmosphere, react with acids to produce hydrogen gas, and can displace less reactive metals from their compounds in aqueous solutions.


Does oxygen react to light acid air or water?

Oxygen does not react with air or water. Nothing actually "reacts" with light as it is not a substance. It can induce a reaction in some substance, but not oxygen. Oxygen will, however react with some acids mostly organic ones, at high temperatures.


Does acids react with alkalis in a combustion reaction?

No, acids and alkalis do not react in a combustion reaction. Combustion is a chemical reaction that involves a substance combining with oxygen to produce heat and light. Acids and alkalis react in neutralization reactions, where they form water and a salt.


What are some elements that react with actinium?

Actinium is a highly reactive element that can react with air, water, and acids to form compounds. It can react with oxygen to form actinium oxide, with nitrogen to form actinium nitride, and with dilute acids to form various salts.


Is Cadmium a reactive element?

Cadmium does react with oxygen, acids, and the halogens. The acids it reacts with is sulfuric acid. Cadmium does react with water.


Does protactinium react with water?

Protactinium is a highly reactive metal and it can react with water, particularly in its radioactive forms. This reaction can release hydrogen gas and produce protactinium hydroxide. However, protactinium is rare and not often encountered in everyday situations.
