Acid + Metal Carbonate

This video explores the reaction between acids and metal carbonates, highlighting the properties of acids, such as the release of hydrogen ions. It explains a quick test for acids using metal carbonates, which produces carbon dioxide. The video also covers the neutralization process and the impact of acid rain on rocks and buildings. Finally, it demonstrates how to confirm carbon dioxide production using limewater.

• Sulfuric acid

• Acetic acid

• Hydrochloric acid

• Nitric acid

What is the evidence that an acid has reacted with a metal carbonate?

• Increase in temperature

• Change in color

• Emission of light

• Formation of bubbles

What is the main component of rainwater that makes it a natural acid?

• Nitrogen dioxide

• Carbon dioxide

• Sulfur dioxide

• Ozone

What happens when rainwater reacts with calcium carbonate in rocks?

• The rock emits a strong odor

• The rock dissolves and washes away

• The rock becomes more solid

• The rock changes color

What is observed when carbon dioxide is passed through limewater?

• The solution turns blue

• The solution becomes clear

• A white milkiness appears

• The solution emits a gas
