Write the reaction five metals with water and acid

  1. Reaction of Metals with Water: Metals react  with  water to produce metal oxides with the release of hydrogen gas. But all metals do not react with water.

Metal +  Water → Metal oxide + Hydrogen

Metal oxides that are soluble in water dissolve in it to further form metal hydroxide.

Metal oxide +  Water → Metal hydroxide

Metals  such as  sodium  and  potassium  react  vigorously  with  cold  water  to  lead  to  evolution  of hydrogen, which immediately catches fire producing a large quantity of heat.

2Na + 2H2O → 2NaOH + H2 + Heat

2K + 2H2O → 2KOH + H2 + Heat

Metals such as aluminium, zinc and iron do not react with cold or hot water, but they react with steam to form metal oxides and hydrogen.

2Al + 3H2O → Al2O3 + 3H2 + Heat

3Fe + 4H2O → Fe3O+ 4H2 + Heat

  1. Reactions of Metals with Acids: Metals react with acids to form salt and hydrogen gas.

Metal + Dilute acid →  Salt + Hydrogen

Metals react with dilute hydrochloric acid to give metal chloride and hydrogen gas. Example - Magnesium reacts violently with dilute hydrochloric acid to form magnesium chloride and hydrogen.

Mg + 2HCl → MgCl2+ H2 

Metals react with sulphuric acid to form metal sulphate and hydrogen gas.

Fe + H2SO4FeSO4+ H2
