Solution

When dilute nitric acid ( ${HNO}_{3}$ ) react with metals, this acid even oxidizes and hydrogen gas are produced during reaction.
When it react ( $N_{2} O, NO$ ) gas produced.
Nitric acid is act as an oxidizing agent.
Example : $Fe (s) + {HNO}_{3} \to Fe {(NO)}_{3} (s) + NO (g) + H_{2} O (l) (Iron) (nitric (Ferric (nitric (water) acid) nitrite) oxide)$
