i would say NO, BUT i cannot explain why
all i know is, I'm doing my chemistry homework AND there is a multiple choice question,
and it says, what about acids is not true?
A) acids are good conductors of electricity -TRUE
B) When pH paper is dipped into an acid, the paper changes color - TRUE
C) Aqueous solutions of acids have a sour taste - TRUE
D) Acids react with bases to produce H2, hydrogen gas - I have not a clue!

What reacts with metals to produce hydrogen gas?
Metals often form hydrides and are found widely in chemistry. notable examples are LiAlH4 potent reducing agent in organic chemistry and NaH powerful base ~50 PKa. in addition hydrogen can adsorb onto metal surfaces. this is important in the catalysis of hydrogenation reactions where Hydrogen gas is reacted with unsaturated compounds by using a platnium surface(many other conditions/metal catalysts are also used)
Why do non metals do not replace hydrogen from acids?
This is because metals have positive ions and so does hydrogen. Hence the nature of their reactivity is same but the value of reactivity is different. Therefore metals replace hydrogen in a reaction while non metals dont...
What gas is produced when metals react with an acid?
Hydrogen
Which metals react with water at room temperature?
The most common set of metals that react with water at room temperature are the alkali metals, namely lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium. while these metals react quite violently with water at room temperature, many if not most other metals have some sort of reaction with water at room temperature (IE, iron rusting in water)
Why won't aluminum and potassium react when mixed together?
Aluminum and potassium are both metals. Metals for alloys but do not react with one another. In somewhat more detail, metals tend to react by giving up their electrons to nonmetals. Since both aluminum and potassium will tend to give up electrons rather than gain them, they do not react.
Why are acids consider corrosive?
Because they can wear away metals and that produces hydrogen gas
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
What type of reaction produces hydrogen gas?
In a hydrochloric acid and magnesium single replacement reaction, hydrogen is given off.
Do non metals liberate hydrogen gas from dilute. acids?
No. Metals liberate hydrogen gas from acids.
The gas evolved when metals react with dilute acids?
When dilute acids and metals are mixed you will get Hydrogen gas and salts
What is a reaction that produces gas called?
A reaction that produces gas is called a gas-evolving reaction or a gas-forming reaction.
Who reacts with metal bases or acids?
Acids react with metals. Metals are themselves basic in nature. Metals displaces hydrogen from acids to liberate hydrogen gas.
What substance can acids react to produce hydrogen gas?
Acids react with metals to evolve H2 gas
What is the gas produced when dilute acids react with metals?
H2 gas
What were the bubbles in the solution when the metals reacted with acids?
Hydrogen gas is liberated in the form of vigorous bubbles when metals and acids react.
What is the gas produced when metals react with acids?
Hydrogen
When acids react with metals?
Home/Sitemap · you are here: Forum => letter 18515 Acid and metal reaction++Q. When an acid is added to a metal, what kind of reaction is produced?A. Some acids react with some metals and not all acids react with all metals. It all depends on what is reacting with what. However, assuming there is a reaction, the acid will dissolve the metal to produce the metal salt of that acid; at the same time it will produce hydrogen gas. ie 2H+ + M = 2M+ + H2
