The metal that produce \(\mathrm{H}_{2}\) with both dil. \(\mathrm{HCl}\) and \(\mathrm{NaOH}(a q)\) is
- A \(\mathrm{Zn}\)
- B Mg
- C \(\mathrm{Ca}\)
- D \(\mathrm{Fe}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\mathrm{Zn}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\mathrm{Zn}+2 \mathrm{HCl}\) (dil.) \(\longrightarrow \mathrm{ZnCl}_{2}+\mathrm{H}_{2}\) \(\mathrm{Zn}+2 \mathrm{NaOH}+2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Na}_{2}\left[\mathrm{Zn}(\mathrm{OH})_{4}\right]+\mathrm{H}_{2}\)
But, Mg, Ca and Fe do not produce hydrogen, when react with aqueous \(\mathrm{NaOH}\).
