Question

Mark ‘T’ if the statement is true and

‘F’ if it is false. (a) Generally, non-

metals react with acids. ( )​

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) - True

Explanation:

As the non-metals have reacting components

Answer 2

Answer: FALSE

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. As a result they do not react with dilute acids.But there are some exceptions.

Like,

6HNO3 + S -> H2SO4 + 6NO2 + 2H2O

Hope it helps.
