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)

If there is Hydrogen, it's acidic
If there is OH, it's basic

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 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.
Doeds acid and metal react to give off oxygen?
NO!!!! The general chemical reaction for acids and metals. is Acid + Metal = Salt + Hydrogen (NOT Oxygen). e.g. 2HCl + Zn = ZnCl2 + H2
Does plutonium react?
Plutonium react with hydrogen, oxygen, halogens, carbon, nitrogen, silicon, sulfur, phosphorous, acids, etc. Plutonium is a reactive metal.
Do silicates react with acids as carbonates do?
No. Silicates do not easily react with acids.

What is magnesium reactive with?
Magnesium is highly reactive and will react with many things. It will react with elements of the Nitrogen group, the Oxygen group and the halogens. It will also react with acids, water etc.
Does plutonium react?
Plutonium react with hydrogen, oxygen, halogens, carbon, nitrogen, silicon, sulfur, phosphorous, acids, etc. Plutonium is a reactive metal.
Do silicates react with acids as carbonates do?
No. Silicates do not easily react with acids.
What acids react with each other?
citric acids react with each other
Does anything not react with acids?
Many plastics and glasses will not react with most acids.
What do acids react with what?
Acids react -in most cases, but not exclusively- well with basic (alkaline) compounds.
Which family is technetium most likely to react with?
Technetium react with oxygen, halogens, oxygen, sulfur, selenium, tellurium, boron, carbon etc. and can form alloys with metals.Technetium is dissolved in inorganic acids excepting hydrochloric acid.
