Do hydrogen bubbles form when iron is added to dilute hydrochloric acid? |

Answer» ONG>Answer: Let us CONSIDER the REACTION between acid and metal
Acid + Metal → Salt + Hydrogen gas (H2)
in this case
Acid = Dilute HCL
Metal = Iron (FE)
∴ HCl + Fe → FeCl2 + H2
Let us balance the equation,
2HCl + Fe → FeCl2 + H2
when dilute HCl is added to Fe then Ferrous chloride ( FeCl2) and hydrogen gas (H2) will be formed. Explanation: |
