Question

Zinc granules give h2 gas when treated with dilute solution of

Answer 1

When zinc granules are treated with dilute solution of H2SO4 , we get Zinc Sulphate and H2 gas

Zn + H2SO4 ---> ZnSO4 +H2

When zinc granules are treated with dil.HCl, we get Zinc chloride and H2 gas

Zn +2 HCL- ---> ZnCl2 + H2

Zinc reacts with dil.nitric acid to produce zinc nitrate and Hydrogen

Zn +2 HNO3 -----> Zn(NO3)2 + H2

Base + Metal ----> Salt + Hydrogen.

2NaOH + Zn -----> Na2ZnO2 + H2
