HOW TO DO THIS
THIS EXPERIMENT?
Adding magnesium metal to
hydrochloric acid produces hydrogen
gas. The magnesium dissolves to form
magnesium chloride, MgCl2.
WHAT HAPPENS DURING
THIS EXPERIMENT?
A salt and water are produced when
acids react with metal oxides . Metal
oxides are bases , because they
neutralise acids.
WHAT HAPPENS DURING
THIS EXPERIMENT?
When acids react with carbonates, such
as calcium carbonate, a salt, water and
carbon dioxide are made. The carbon
dioxide causes bubbling during the
reaction, which is observed as fizzing.. A
metal carbonate reacts with acids,
carbon dioxide gas is released and a salt
is formed.
G A S
EXPEFRIMENT?
To do the test for hydrogen you need to
start of by lighting a splint, carefully
place the splint into the hydrogen gas
being created (fizzing) This should
create a squeaky pop sound.
HOW TO DO THIS
EXPERIMENT?
Take copper oxide and place it into a test
tube. Add dilute hydrochloric acid drop
by drop, and shake. A green solution will
be made.
HOW TO DO THIS
EXPERIMENT?
Put calcium carbonate into a beaker,
add hydrochloric acid into it. a gas is
formed and released. Light a match and
place it close to the mount of the beaker
and the light should extinguish. This gas
is carbon dioxide.
