All metals will react with acids to form a salt and hydrogen gas (H2). This type of reactino is a redox reaction. The metal initially in the elemental (0 state) loses electrons and is oxidated to the ionic form (charged). Since we have oxidized the metal, something must also be reduced in order to maintain the balance of electrons. The hydrogen, initially in its ionic (+1) form, gains electrons and is reduced to elemental form (0) They react in the follwing manner: M + HA --> MA + H2 (g) The reaction is not balanced because the oxidation state (charge/combining capacity) is dependent upon which metal it is. A salt (generally meaning an ionic compound consisting of a positive ion attracted to a negative ion) is always the product of the above reaction. Posted by Ms Ford, MBSS Science 10 teacher.

What else can I help you with?
When metals react with acid it form?
When metals react with acid, they typically form a salt of the metal and hydrogen gas. The metal displaces the hydrogen from the acid, resulting in the formation of a metal salt and the release of hydrogen gas as a byproduct.
What can react with Acids?
Bases can react with acids to form salts and water. Metals can also react with acids to produce hydrogen gas and a salt. Additionally, carbonates and bicarbonates can react with acids to form carbon dioxide gas, water, and a salt.
What happens when non metals react with metals?
they form a salt
What does acid react with?
Acids typically react with bases to form salt and water through a neutralization reaction. They can also react with metals to produce salt and hydrogen gas or react with carbonates to form salt, carbon dioxide, and water. Additionally, some acids can react with organic compounds in a process known as acid-catalyzed reactions.
Does hydrogen gas liberate when metals react with carbonic acid?
No, hydrogen gas does not liberate when metals react with carbonic acid. Instead, when metals react with carbonic acid, carbon dioxide gas is usually formed along with a metal salt.
What reactions can occur with an acid?
Acids can react with bases to form salt and water through a neutralization reaction. They can also react with metals to form salt and hydrogen gas. Additionally, acids can react with carbonates to produce salt, water, and carbon dioxide.
What is the effect of acids on metals?
The acid may react which the metal to form a salt and release hydrogen gas.
Do all metals react with acid then disappear?
No. First of all, the metal does not dissapear. When a a metal reacts with an acid it forms a corresponding salt, which usually then dissolves. Second, whther or not a reaction occurs depends on both the acid and the metal. Most metals will not react with a dilute weak acid. Some metals will not even react with most strong metals. Gold, platinum, and some platinum group metals will not react with acid except for aqua regia, a special mixture of hydrochloric and nitric acid. Ruthenium will not react with acid at all.
Can an acid and a base react to form an acid?
NO!!!! Remember the general acid reaction equations. Acid + Base = Salt +Water Acid +Alkali = Salt + Water Acid +Metal = Salt + Hydrogen Acid + Carbonate = Salt + Water + Carbon Dioxide. NB An Alkali is a soluble Base.
An acid and a base react to form a?
salt and water
Are acid and metal formed in a acid or salt?
Acid is formed when a substance donates a proton, while a metal is a type of element. Acids and metals can react to form salts, where the metal displaces hydrogen from the acid to form positive metal ions and negative anions from the acid, resulting in a salt compound.
How do metals react with acids?
Most metals react with acids to produce a corresponding salt and hydrogen gas. Shown here is the reaction between zinc and hydrochloric acid to produce zinc chloride and hydrogen. Zn + 2HCl --> ZnCl2 + H2 Nitric acid reacts with some less reactive metals, Here copper reacts with nitric acid to produce copper II nitrate, water, and nitrogen dioxide. Cu + 4 HNO3 --> Cu(NO3)2 + 2NO2 + 2H2O
