Acids combine with active metals to give off H2?

Yes, when acids react with active metals, they produce hydrogen gas. This reaction is a redox reaction in which the metal displaces hydrogen from the acid to form a metal salt and hydrogen gas is released. This is a common way to test for the reactivity of metals with acids.


What is produced when acids react with some metals?

When acids react with some metals, they produce hydrogen gas and a salt of the metal. The metal replaces hydrogen in the acid to form a salt, while hydrogen gas is released as a byproduct of the reaction. This process is known as a single displacement reaction or a metal-acid reaction.


What substance can acids react to produce hydrogen gas?

Acids can react with metals (such as zinc or magnesium) to produce hydrogen gas. The acid reacts with the metal to form a salt and hydrogen gas is released as a byproduct of the reaction.


How do acids respond to bases?

The reaction between bases and acids is a neutralization reaction.


What is released when metals react with acids?

Hydrogen gas is released.


Will acid and metal make a chemical reaction?

Yes, many metals can react with acids.


What metals react with acids not water?

Metals such as zinc, aluminum, and iron can react with acids but not with water. When these metals react with acids, they undergo a chemical reaction that produces hydrogen gas and a salt. In contrast, these metals do not react with water to produce hydrogen gas.


How was hydrogen Discovered?

Hydrogen was first discovered by Henry Cavendish in 1766 when he isolated it as a unique substance during his experiments on acids and metals. He observed that hydrogen released during the reaction of metals with acids produced a gas that burned easily.


What is the differences between the reaction of metals with acids and the reaction of metal carbonates with acid?

When metals react with acids,hydrogen is liberated,(since all acids contain hydrogen) eg:Na2 + H2SO4 -> Na2SO4 + H2 When metal carbonates react with acids carbon dioxide is liberated. eg:Na2CO3 + H2SO4 -> Na2SO4 + H2O + CO2


Do some metals react with acid to make oxygen?

yes ,if you add dilute sulphuric acid with a magnesium ribbon in a boiling test tube you will see lots of bubbles appear and if you put your thumb over the opening of the test tube and put a burning split over it then remove thumb you will hear a squeaky pop!


Do acids react with metals to form water?

NOPE! Hope you get through the horrible experience which is quest!
