Question

Write down the reaction between zinc and sulphuric acid.

Answer 1

when zinc react with sulphuric acid if gives zinc sulphate and hydrogen is evaluate

Answer 2

Answer:

• Zinc reacts with the ‘dilute sulphuric acid’ to form the ‘zinc sulphate’ and ‘hydrogen gas’ is evolved.  

The chemical reaction in between zinc and sulphuric acid is as follows:

                    $z n+H_{2} S O_{4} \rightarrow Z n S O_{4}+H_{2}$

• From the reaction, it is clearly states that it is a single displacement reaction.
• In this kind of reaction, the Sulphate ion is added to the zinc to form zinc sulphate and remaining hydrogen in the sulphuric acid is evolved as hydrogen gas.
