Question

hello Masterminds of brainly,
Non metals won't react with acids, as they have the same property of accepting the electrons, where, Metals Is reacting with bases, though, they have the same property of donating electrons.
why is that so?​

Answer 1

Non-metals are acceptors of electrons and hence, they cannot donate electrons.

Explanation:Non-metals do not react with acids. This is due to the fact that a substance undergoing reaction with acids, donates electrons to the H+ ions produced by the acids. But non-metals are acceptor of electrons and hence they do not donate electron to the hydrogen ion of the acid.

Answer 2

Answer:

Here is ur answer

Explanation:

Non- metals do not generally react with acids because when a substance, reacts with acid it provides electrons to the H+ions produced by the acids. Non- metals are acceptors of electrons and hence, they cannot donate electron's.

Hope it helps you
