The reaction of zinc with hot concentrated caustic alkalis involves the formation of soluble salts and liberation of hydrogen gas.
Which of the following metals reacts with both acid and hot concentrated alkalis to form hydrogen gas:
Write the balanced chemical equations for the following reactions- (a) Sodium carbonate on reaction with hydrochloric acid in equal molar concentration gives sodium chloride and sodium hydrogen carbonate. (b) Sodium hydrogen carbonate on reaction with hydrochloric acid gives sodium chloride, water and liberates carbon dioxide. (c) Copper sulphate on treatment with potassium iodide precipitates cuprous iodide (Cu2I2), liberates iodine gas and also forms potassium sulphate.
