Question

How do acids and base react with metals?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Acids and Bases React with Metals

For example, zinc metal reacts with hydrochloricacid producing zinc chloride and hydrogen gas. Bases also react with certain metals like zinc or aluminum for example to produce hydrogen gas. ... Zn(s)+2NaOH(aq)+2H2O(l)→Na2Zn(OH)4(aq)+H2(g).

Answer 2

Answer:

For example, zinc metal reacts with hydrochloric acid producing zinc chloride and hydrogen gas. Bases also react with certain metals like zinc or aluminum for example to produce hydrogen gas.

Zn(s)+2NaOH(aq)+2H2O(l)→Na2Zn(OH)4(aq +H2(g).
