Usually a metallic element will not react with water and so will not change pH.
However, a highly reactive metal, such as sodium, potassium or calcium will react with water to form the corresponding metal hydroxide, and so forms a base.
When you place a metallix element in water, the water becomes basic. The reason for this is that the electrons from the metal are removed and attach themselves a hydrogen of the H2O, this creates a positivly charged metal. A single hydrogen is released and pairs up with another hydrogen from another water molecule, thus creating H2, hydrogen gas. The hydroxide created by the release of 1 hydrogen bonds with the metallic substance. As there are more OH- in the solution, it becomes basic.
Chlorine gas reacts with water to give hypochlorous acid and hydrochloric acid Cl2 + H2O -> HOCl + HCl Chlorine gas reacts with water to give hypochlorous acid and hydrochloric acid
When SO2 [Sulphur Dioxide] reacts with water Sulphuric Acid [H2SO4] is created, which is commonly refered to as "acid rain."
Carbon dioxide reacts with water to form carbonic acid H2O + CO2 --> H2CO3
Chlorine gas reacts with water to give hypochlorous acid and hydrochloric acid
carbonate + acid = salt + water + carbon dioxide
No. Iron is a metallic element.
No, it is a metallic element, atom number 11.
Fe2O3 It is neither an acid or a base, and it is a compound, not an element
When a metal oxide reacts with an acid a slat and water are formed.
Metallic magnesium will cause rapid evolution of hydrogen gas when contacted with an acid in water solution, but will cause gas evolution much more slowly if at all when in contact with pure water.
An acid reacts with a base to produce a neutral solution. (apex).
When chloroform reacts with nitric acid,nitrochloroform (chloropicrin) and water are formed.
Salt and Water are ALWAYS made when an acid reacts with a carbonate
an acid which contain hydrogen and non metallic element and no oxygen.
its a base cos its a metallic element ie, mercury
Chlorine gas reacts with water to give hypochlorous acid and hydrochloric acid Cl2 + H2O -> HOCl + HCl Chlorine gas reacts with water to give hypochlorous acid and hydrochloric acid
Cadmium does react with oxygen, acids, and the halogens. The acids it reacts with is sulfuric acid. Cadmium does react with water.
