Why are metals found in nature usually in the form of carbonates and sulfates?

Metals are found in nature as carbonates and sulfates due to their reaction with carbon dioxide and sulfur compounds in the environment. These reactions occur over long periods of time as metals interact with the Earth's atmosphere and water, resulting in the formation of these compounds.


What is the reaction between aluminum and ironIII oxide that can generate temperatures approaching 30000 degrees C and is used in welding metals?

It is called the thermite reaction, and it's expressed this way: Fe2O3 + 2Al -> 2Fe + Al2O3 + Heat A link can be found below. It's to the Wikipedia post, and you'll get more information there.


What is the product of the reaction between aluminum and magnesium?

The product of the reaction between aluminum and magnesium is a solid solution called an intermetallic compound, often referred to as an alloy. This alloy typically consists of a mixture of aluminum and magnesium atoms in a specific ratio, depending on the reaction conditions and the relative amounts of the two metals used.


Does hydrogen react with metals?

Hydrogen can react with metals to form metal hydrides. This reaction can occur at high temperatures or under certain conditions, and it depends on the specific metal and its reactivity with hydrogen.


Reacts with certain metals acid or base?

When certain metals come into contact with acids, they undergo a chemical reaction where hydrogen gas is produced. With bases, some metals may react to form hydrogen gas and a metal salt. The reactivity of the metal and the type of acid or base will determine the specific reaction that takes place.

In volta's battery a chemical reaction between which two metals produced a current?

In Volta's battery, the chemical reaction occurs between zinc and copper, which produces a current through the flow of electrons from the zinc to the copper electrode. This reaction is driven by the difference in electronegativity between the two metals.


What is the significance of the distance between two metals in the activity series?

The distance between two metals in the activity series indicates how likely a redox reaction between those metals will occur. Metals higher in the series (closer together) will readily form cations and undergo oxidation reactions when in contact with metals lower in the series. This distance helps predict which metal will displace the other in a redox reaction.


A sample of hydrogen gas is generated from a...?

Hydrogen can by generated, for example, from the reaction between alkali metals and water.


What reation will occur with CaCl2 and NaCl?

No reaction happens. Only way to get a reaction going is if you have two molecules with different Metals and Non-metals. Metals in this one are different but non-metals are not so no reaction.


What metals make up the earths atmosphere?

Metals are not a part of earth's atmosphere. All metals are solid under normal conditions, except for mercury, which is a liquid.


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
