Write an equation for the reactions of hydrochloric acid on: (b) magnesium foil

Open in App

Solution

Hydrochloric acid reacts with Magnesium to give magnesium chloride $(M g C l_{3})$ and hydrogen gas $(H_{2})$
This reaction is the characteristic reaction of metals with acid along with single replacement reactions,
Reaction involved is:
$M g + 2 H C l \to M g C l_{2} + H_{2}$
