1. Why should curd and sour substances not be kept in brass and copper vessels?
2. Which gas is usually liberated when an acid reacts with a metal? Illustrate with an example. How will you test for the presence of this gas?
3. Metal compound A reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid to produce effervescence. The gas evolved extinguishes a burning candle. Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction if one of the compounds formed is calcium chloride.
Answers
Answer:
Ans 1. Curd and sour food substances contain acids; these acidic substances combine with metal. This reaction turns food to poison which damage people’s health.
Ans 2. When an acid reacts with any metal, salt and hydrogen gas are formed.
Ans 3. As metal compound released is Calcium Chloride the gas evolved here is CO2. Hence metal A should be Calcium Carbonate. Hence the reaction between Calcium Carbonate and HCl is CaCO3 (s) + 2HCl (Aq) → CaCl2( Aq) + CO2 (g) + H2O (l)
Explanation:
Please mark my answer as the brainliest, thank you :)
Explanation:
1 If these kinds of substances which possess acids are kept in copper containers or vessels they will react and produce salt and hydrogen and the vessel will be corroded. It can also produce harmful products that may spoil the food.
2 Hydrogen gas
Answer: Hydrogen gas is liberated when an acid reacts with a metal. For example, when zinc metal reacts with dil. hydrogen is evolved and salt zinc chloride is formed as: It can be tested by bringing a burning candle near the gas.
