Generally, there occurs a chemical reaction with a wearing away of the metal. A salt and Hydrogen gas are produced. The following is the general formula for this reaction:
ACID + (Active) METAL --> SALT + HYDROGEN.
If the metal is not active such as Gold, then this reaction does not occur.

What happens when metal and acid?
Acid + Metal = Salt + Hydrogen
What happens to the pH when an acid and base are mixed?
it will disolve
What happens when an acid reacts with metal carbonate?
the acid eats the meatl
What are the reactants when acid and metal are mixed?
The reactants are the acid and the metal but the products of this would be a salt and hydrogen.e.g.Hydrochloric + Magnesium > Magnesium + HydrogenAcid ChlorideAcid + Metal > Metal Salt + HydrogenI hope this helps
What happens when you add sulfuric acid to water?
when mixed sulfuric acid with water in the presence of oxygen nothing happens but the acid turned from concentrated acid will turn into diluted acid.
What happens when metal and acid?
Acid + Metal = Salt + Hydrogen
