The answer is C. There needs to be equal numbers of protons and electrons. If there are more or less electrons then the atom is no longer neutral! The number of electrons will equal the number of protons In a neutral atom and the number of protons is the atomic number.

When a piece of zinc metal is carefully placed in a beaker of strong acid, bubbles form on the surface of the metal and begin to
kati45 [8]

Answer:

A.  a new substance is being produced.

Explanation:

The bubbles most likely indicates that a new substance is being produced by this reaction. In essence, we describe this sort of change as chemical change.

In a chemical change, new substances are usually produced. They are accompanied by the evolution or absorption of energy.

The reaction of Zinc with a strong acid to produce bubbles on the surface of the metal indicates a chemical change and the formation of a new kind of substance.

Take for example, let zinc reacts with hydrocholoric acid, HCl;

   Zn         +      2HCl      →    ZnCl₂     +     H₂

Since Zn is higher than Hydrogen in the activity series, it will displace it from HCl and liberate hydrogen gas as a product. This will cause the bubbles observed in the reaction.

This is a chemical change and new products have been formed.

B and D are wrong because they are both physical changes.

C is wrong because no information about such is provided by the problem statement.

So, when a piece of zinc metal combines with a strong acid, a new kind of substance is produced.
