Question

Describe the reaction of zinc granules with dilute sulphuric acid with
diagram. Also write the equation of zinc with sodium hydroxide.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

When zinc dust is taken instead of zinc granules to react with sulphuric acid, the hydrogen gas is formed. ... Zn + 2HCl ⇨ ZnCl2 + H2OThus, when hydrochloric acid is used at the place of sulphuric acid, zinc chloride is formed in place of zinc sulphate; along with hydrogen gas and reaction takes place at the same rate.
