How do metal respond to acids?

Many metals reacts with acids forming salts.


What are the products when metal reacts with acids?

hydrogen gas


What type of element reacts with acids to form hydrogen?

Metallic elements like zinc, aluminum, and magnesium react with acids to form hydrogen gas. This reaction occurs because these metals are more reactive than hydrogen and displace it in the acid, forming hydrogen gas.


What is the gas produced when any metal reacts with acids?

Hydrogen gas is produced when any metal reacts with acids. This is a common reaction that is often used to test for the presence of metal in a substance.


How is hydrogen gas made when a metal reacts with a acid?

Acids contain hydrogen. When an acid reacts with a metal it displaces the hydrogen, taking its place in the acid. For example, this is how zinc (a metal) will react with hydrochloric acid. Zn + 2HCl --> ZnCl2 + H2


Iron metal does not release hydrogen gas with acids?

Iron metal reacts with acids to form iron(II) salts and hydrogen gas. However, iron passivates quickly in the presence of oxygen, forming a protective oxide layer that inhibits the reaction with acids. This passivation inhibits the vigorous release of hydrogen gas often seen with other more reactive metals.


What is the acid-base property of cesium?

Cesium is a strong base due to its ability to readily donate its outermost electron in chemical reactions, forming hydroxide ions. It reacts vigorously with water to produce cesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.


Does sulphur displaces Hydrogen on reaction with dilute mineral acids?

Yes, sulfur can displace hydrogen from dilute mineral acids when sulfur reacts with acids such as hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid to form hydrogen sulfide gas.


When zinc reacts with acids producing hydrogen gas is it a chemical or physical change?

When zinc reacts with acids to produce hydrogen gas, it is a chemical change because new substances are formed (zinc salts and hydrogen gas) with different properties from the original substances.


Does zinc reacts with the acid?

Yes it does. It is a reactive metal and displaces hydrogen from the acids to give a zinc salt and hydrogen gas.


What produces H-ions in solution?

Acids are dissociated forming hydrogen cations.


What type of gas is released in reaction between metals and acids?

hydrogen gas is liberated when an acid reacts with a metal.The equation is as follows acid + metal=salt + h2
