1. Which of the metals react(s) with dilute
hydrochloric acid?
Magnesium, iron and zinc

2. What new substance(s) is/are likely to be
produced when metals react with dilute

3. Do you think different metals react with
dilute hydrochloric acid at the same rate?
Explain your answer.
Different metals do not react with dilute
__________________________________
hydrochloric acid at the same rate. This is
__________________________________
evident as magnesium reacts more
__________________________________
vigorously with acid than other metals.
