barrier from air and water. but also as a sacrificial metal because it is more reactive and so will react with oxygen more readily. zinc will be oxidised (Lose electrons) instead of Iron. REACTIONS WITH DILUTE ACIDS METAL + ACID • Potassium, sodium, lithium and calcium form the metal salt and hydrogen • A salt is a compound produced when the hydrogen from an acid is replaced by a positive cation (metal ion) ammonian ion) • Magnesium, zinc and Iron react with decreasing vigour as the series descends Zinc + Zn + EXAMPLES: Magnesium + hydrochloric acid Magnesium chloride + hydrogen Mg + 2 HCL mg C12 H₂ zinc sulphide + Hydrogen Sulphuric acid → H₂SO4 ZnSO4 H₂ Witric acid 2HNO3 Iron Fe + + SALT + HYDROGEN POSSOM react very vigorously with dilute acid to NOT SAFE TO DO THESE REACTIONS ALE NO REACTION Iron (11) nitrate + Hydrogen Fe (NO₂)2 + H₂ • Aluminium will not react with cold acid due to the Stable aluminium. oxide layer, but will react when heated.
