The four metals that will not replace hydrogen in an acid are Cu, Ag, Au, Hg.
Explanation:
- As Copper Cu lies below the hydrogen, this is why it is less reactive and ca not replace Hydrogen from its compound.
- Silver Ag also lies below the hydrogen and therefore it is less reactive to displace Hydrogen.
- Gold Au becomes less reactive than Hydrogen due to its placement below Hydrogen acid.
- Mercury Hg is less reactive than Hydrogen
Answer:
To tell if something is an acid or a base, you can use a chemical called an indicator. An indicator changes color when it encounters an acid or base. There are many different types of indicators, some that are liquids and others that are concentrated on little strips of "litmus" paper.
Explanation:
Well, look up the atomic weights of copper and oxygen; add them appropriately; divide the total for the copper by the total for the molecule; then multiply by 100 to get it as a percentage.
