Basalt doesn't react with acid. Igneous rocks in general rarely react with acid.

Do all metals react with hydrocholric acid?

No, not all metals react with hydrochloric acid. Generally, metals that are more reactive than hydrogen in the reactivity series will react with hydrochloric acid to form metal chloride and hydrogen gas. Metals which are less reactive than hydrogen, such as copper, silver, and gold, do not react with hydrochloric acid.


Do all metals react with hydrochloric acid to give hydrogen gas?

No, not all metals react with hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen gas. Only metals higher in the reactivity series than hydrogen, such as zinc, iron, and magnesium, will react with hydrochloric acid to form hydrogen gas. Metals like gold, silver, and platinum do not react with hydrochloric acid.


What metals react with cold hydrochloric acid?

zinc is famous for reacting with hydrochloric acid but so will magnesium, aluminum, iron and all the alkali, alkaline earths and also group III metals.


Does pyrite react with hydrochloric acid to form bubbels?

Yes, pyrite does react with hydrochloric acid to form bubbles of sulfur dioxide gas. This reaction occurs because hydrochloric acid reacts with the iron sulfide in pyrite to release sulfur dioxide gas as a byproduct.


Would magnesium react more vigorously with hydrochloric acid than vinegar?

Indeed it would. Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid which means it disassociates almost 100% in solution ( donates almost all of it's H + ) while acetic acid is a weak organic acid that may not disassociate more than 1% in solution.

What are compounds that taste sour and react with metal?

Compounds that taste sour and react with metals are likely acids. For example, hydrochloric acid, acetic acid, and citric acid are all sour-tasting compounds that can react with certain metals to produce hydrogen gas.


What if you coated steel in hydrOchloric acid and put it in water?

Well hydrochloric acid readily dissolves all metals except gold and platinum....but take a longer time to react with stainless steel!

Why does the reaction stop between magnesium and hydrochloric acid?

The reaction between magnesium and hydrochloric acid stops when all the magnesium has reacted with the acid to form magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas. Once all the magnesium has been consumed in the reaction, there is no more magnesium to react with the acid, leading to the reaction coming to a halt.


What minerals react to hydrochloric acid?

Minerals like calcite, dolomite, and limestone will react to hydrochloric acid by fizzing or effervescing due to the release of carbon dioxide gas. Other minerals that contain carbonate ions may also exhibit similar reactions when exposed to hydrochloric acid.


Do all alkalis contain hydrochloric acid?

No- hydrochloric acid is an acid and is the opposite of an alkali so no alkalis contain it


What gas is given off when metals react with hydrochloric acid?

A gas called hydrogen is given off when most metals react with aqueous hydrochloric acid. The ease with which this happens varies: All alkali metals reacts extemely quickly and, with the possible exception of lithium, dangerously. The alkaline earth metals, except beryllium and magnesium, are similar. Most other metals dissolve more slowly and may require heating to evolve the hydrogen gas, and some metals such as copper, gold, and platinum do not react at all.
