When an acid reacts with a metal such as zinc, whats released? Where does the product come from? I answered: a gas hydrogen is released and it comes from the bubbles formed when an acid is added to a metal' is the 2nd part of the q correct??
No. You're correct that H2 gas is released. The H ion is in the acid; the H ion is released as H atom, two atoms join to form H2 molecule and those bubbles are then released to the atmosphere.
gas hydrogen is released qand it comes from the bubbles as t forms when acid is added to a metal
Yes, the second part of your answer is correct. When an acid reacts with a metal such as zinc, one of the products that is released is hydrogen gas. The hydrogen gas is formed from the reaction between the acid and the metal. As the acid comes into contact with the metal, it starts to corrode the metal surface, resulting in the release of hydrogen gas. The bubbles that you observe during this reaction are indeed the visible manifestation of the generated hydrogen gas. So, your answer is accurate.
