1) Zn + 2HCl ----> Zn Cl2 + H2
1) Zn + 2HCl ----> Zn Cl2 + H2
Open in App
Solution
This is a metal/acid reaction if carried out in aqueous solution.
It is also a displacement reaction where 1 atom of Zinc displaces 2 H+ ions
and it is a redox reaction as the Zn atom loses electrons (it is OXIDISED) and the 2 H+ ions gain electrons (they are REDUCED)
