Question

what happens when Aluminium metal is added to dil Hcl. write the balanced chemical equation.how will you test for the gas produced in the given reaction .name the type of reaction

Answer 1

Answer:

On adding aluminium(Al) to dilute hydrochloric acid(HCl), the following displacement reaction takes place:

2Al(s)+6HCl(aq)→2AlCl  3  (aq)+3H  2  (g)

Aluminium being more reactive than hydrogen, displaces the latter in hydrochloric acid (HCl) to form aluminium chloride(AlCl  3  ).
