Question

You are provided with two containers made of aluminum and copper. You are also provided with solutions diluted HCIL,HNO3,ZnCl and H2O. In which of the above containers can these solutions be kept?

Answer 1

Hi there,

☆ Copper container can keep dil acidic solutions

☆ Copper after hydrogen in the electrochemical series,so copper cann't replace hydrogen in its solutions as,

■ Cu + 2HCl(dil) = no reaction

☆ Also zncl2 kept in the copper container

☆ Aluminum location is befor hydrogen in the series , so it can replace hydrogen in its solutions so u cannt storge acidic solutions in aluminum containers

■ 2Al + 6HCl = 2AlCl3 + 3H2
