Small amounts of chlorine gas can be made in the laboratory by putting concentrated hydrochloric acid in a flask with a side arm and rubber tubing attached. Manganese dioxide is then added and the flask stoppered. The reaction is not greatly exothermic. As chlorine is denser than air, it can be collected by placing the tube inside a flask where it will displace the air. Once full, the collecting flask can be stoppered.

What metal is most reactive with hydrochloric acid out of magnesium and copper?

Magnesium is more reactive with hydrochloric acid compared to copper. When magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid, it produces hydrogen gas and magnesium chloride, while copper does not readily react with hydrochloric acid.

Does gold reacts with acids?

Gold does not react with most acids, including hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid. However, aqua regia, a mixture of nitric acid and hydrochloric acid, can dissolve gold to form gold chloride. This property is often used in gold recovery and refining processes.


If an active metal reacts with certain acids such as hydrochloric acid it yields what?

When an active metal reacts with hydrochloric acid, it produces metal chloride salt and hydrogen gas. The metal chloride is typically soluble in water and the reaction is accompanied by the evolution of hydrogen gas bubbles.


What chemical properties does lead have?

Lead is a moderately active metal. It dissolves slowly in water and in most cold acids. It reacts more rapidly with hot acids. It does not react with oxygen in the air readily and does not burn.
