You would see bubbles (effervescence) of Hydrogen gas being given off as the reaction happens.Magnesium + Hydrochloric acid ------> Magnesium Chloride + HydrogenMetal + acid ------> Metal Salt + Hydrogen
Product will be metal salt and hydrogen Ex.) Hydrochloric acid and zinc ---> zinc chloride and hydrogen 2HCl + Zn ---> ZnCl2 + H2 Sulphuric acid + magnesium ---> magnesium sulphate and hydrogen H2SO4 + Mg ---> MgSO4 + H2 Ethanoic acid and calcium ---> calcium ethanoate and hydrogen (Acetic acid and calcium ---> calcium acetate and hydrogen , using the older names) 2CH3COOH + Ca---> Ca(OOCCH3)2 + H2
Well if you put magnesium with hydrochloric acid, the magnesium reacts with it and creates hydrogen and magnesium chloride. Here is the word equation... Magnesium + Hydrochloric acid --> Magnesium chloride + Hydrogen
If you ever had vinegar on your salad, you used ethanoic acid. Ethanoic acid is more commonly known by its other name of acetic acid, and vinegar is most often a dilute (<10%) solution of acetic acid.
The metal "dissolves" vigorously, producing Hydrogen gas which is seen as a fizzing and a magnesium salt is formed also.
hydrogen
No acid is formed. The reaction produces hydrogen gas and magnesium chloride, a salt.
Hydrogen. The same is true for when most metals react with an acid.
The salt formed when magnesium reacts with nitric acid is magnesium nitrate.

Yes ethanoic (acid) anhydride is soluble in WATER but at first it reacts (hydrolysis) heavily and exothermic with water.
Magnesium acetate in solution, crabon dioxide released as a gas.

there are many many acidic corosive materials. you will need to be more specific as in what type of acid the magnesium is reacting with. i assume you are at school and are talking about hydrochloric acid. If you add Magnesium metal to hydrochloric acid , the Magnesium will dissolve and form bubbles of hydrogen gas.
