Answer: Hydrogen gas will be given off
Explanation:
Whenever a metal reacts with an acid, a salt of the metal is formed and hydrogen gas is given off.
For instance: The reaction of Zinc metal on Hydrochloric acid.
Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) ---> ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g)
From the equation provided, hydrogen gas is given off as a by-product
Capillary action is the ability of a liquid to flow in narrow spaces without the assistance of, or even in opposition to, external forces like gravity.
An alkoxide is an organic functional group formed when a hydrogen atom is removed from a hydroxyl group of alcohol when reacted with a metal. It is the conjugate base of alcoho.
