Question

Write generally formats for reaction of acids with metals

Answer 1

Acids and Bases React with Metals. Acids react with most metals to form a salt and hydrogen gas. As discussed in Chapter 7, metals that are more active than acids can undergo a single diplacement reaction. For example, zinc metal reacts with hydrochloric acid producing zinc chloride and hydrogen gas.

Answer 2

✨Heya dear!✨

When an acid reacts with a metal it produces a metal salt accompanied with release of Hydrogen gas (H2).

For example,

Mg (s) + 2 HCl (aq) → MgCl2 (aq) + H2 (g)
