Equal lengths of magnesium ribbons are taken in test tube AandB . Hydrochloric acid ( HCl ) is added to test tube A , while acetic acid ( CH3COOH ) is added to test tube B . Amount and concentration taken for both the acids are same . In which test tube will the fizzing occur more vigorously and why ?
Answers
Answer:
In test tube A the fizzing occur more vigorously.
Explanation:
It is because HCl is strong acid which means it ionize completely, which means H ions in the test tube A is greater than in B. So, that test tube A will show fizzing more vigorously.
Answer:
please mark me as brainliest please
Fizzing will occur more vigorously in test tube A. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is a strong acid whereas acetic acid (CH3COOH) is a weak acid. Being strong acid, the hydrochloric acid solution contains a much greater amount of hydrogen ions in it due to which the fizzing will occur more vigorously in test tube A (containing hydrochloric acid). The fizzing is due to the evolution of hydrogen gas which is formed by the action of acid on the magnesium metal of magnesium ribbon.
