Answer» Solution :Acids are COMPOUNDS, which give `H^(+)` ions in their aqueous solutions. Chemical Properties : (i) Acids react with bases to form salt and water (Neutralisation reaction). `HCl + NaOH RARR NaCl + H_(2)O` (ii) Dilute acids react with METALS to release `H_(2)` gas. `ZN + 2HCl(aq) rarr ZnCl_(2)+ H_(2)` |
