When zinc reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid, zinc chloride is formed and hydrogen gas is given off.
Zn + 2HCl --------------> ZnCl₂ + H₂↑
The presence of hydrogen gas can be detected by bringing a burning matchstick near it. The matchstick will extinguish and hydrogen gas will burn with a pop sound.
It is a displacement reaction.
