Question

Oenerlly non metal react with acid

Answer 1

Explanation:

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

Answer 2

Answer:

No non metal react with acid.

because they don't give electron to displace hydrogen ions from acids.

this is due to fact that non metal themselves are acceptors of electron to become stable and complete their octet .

so how can they donate electrons to displace hydrogen ions.

equation - C + HCl -------- no reaction
