<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option D.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The reaction of HCl with every substance given in the option follows the equations:
The reaction of aluminium with hydrochloric acid produces aluminium chloride and hydrogen gas. The equation follows:
Thus, this substance evolve gas on reaction.
The reaction of zinc with hydrochloric acid produces zinc chloride and hydrogen gas. The equation follows:
Thus, this substance evolve gas on reaction.
- <u>Option C:</u>
The reaction of potassium carbonate with hydrochloric acid produces potassium chloride, water and carbon dioxide gas. The equation follows:
Thus, this substance evolve gas on reaction.
- <u>Option D:</u>
The reaction of sodium nitrate with hydrochloric acid produces sodium chloride and nitric acid. The equation follows:
Thus, this substance will not evolve gas on reaction.
Hence, the correct answer is Option D.
