Question

Explain the corrosive nature of acids.​

Answer 1

$\mathfrak{\huge{\orange{\underline{\underline{Answer :}}}}}$

Some Acids are highly corrosive in nature which means that they corrode or rust metals. Acids tend to evolve hydrogen gas whilst reacting with an active metal such as Zn, Mg, etc. They produce H+ ions when mixed with water. Acids lose their acidity when mixed with a base.
