Question

What happens when magnesium reacts with nitric acid?

Answer 1

Metals also react with nitric acid, but hydrogen gas is not evolved, because nitric acid is a strong oxidising agent. So, it oxidises the hydrogen to water and itself gets reduced to any nitrogen oxide. However, magnesium and manganese react with dilute nitric acid to evolve hydrogen gas.
