What happens when Aluminium reacts with Nitric acid.
Answer : When Aluminium reacts Nitric acid, it gives Aluminium Nitrate, Nitrogen dioxide and water.
i.e., Al + 6HNO₃ ⇒ Al(NO₃)₃ + 3NO₂ ↑ + 3H₂O
some important facts :
- Aluminium reacts with oxygen present in air, and forms a thin protective layer around it, that's why Aluminium is not attacked by concentrate nitric acid.
- Most of the metals do not liberate hydrogen gas react with nitric acid. because nitric acid is a strong oxidising agent. this is the reason that the Hydrogen gas produced during the reaction with metal gets oxidized to water.
- Only Mg and Mn can produce hydrogen gas with nitric acid.
