Solution

The correct option is D
Sulphuric acid, hydrogen gas

The salt 'iron sulphate' suggests that acid used will be sulphuric acid. When metal reacts with acid it gives salt and hydrogen gas.

Q. Rewrite the following by choosing the correct word from each pair in brackets.
Acids are compounds that contain (hydrogen/sulphur) atoms. Sulphuric acid is one such example. It is a (strong/weak) acid. It can be neutralised by (acids/alkalis) to form salts called (sulphites/sulphates).
Many (metals/non-metals) react with acids to give a gas called (hydrogen/oxygen). Acid also react with (carbonates/hydroxides) to give (hydrogen/carbon dioxide) gas.
Phenolphthalein turns (pink/colourless) in acids, while litmus turns (red/blue).

So if zinc + sulphuric acid 👉 Hydrogen gas.................................... so do Pumpkin or dark chocolate + Acid rain also gives Hydrogen

Q. When zinc reacts with dilute sulphuric acid, hydrogen gas is released.
