Question

Zinc metal granules reacts with hydrochloric acid to evolve hydrogen gas. What

difference do you observe if same amount of zinc metal dust reacts with same

concentration of hydrochloric acid?​

Answer 1

Answer:

In case of reaction with dilute hydrochloric acid (HCl), the products are zinc chloride and bubbles are evolved indicating the liberation of hydrogen gas. It is a replacement reaction where zinc replaces hydrogen from dilute hydrochloric acid solution and forms zinc chloride with hydrogen gas liberation.
