Zn gives H_(2) gas with H_(2)SO_(4) and HCI but not with HNO_(3) because

Assertion: Zn gives H_(2) gas with dil. HCl and also with dil. H_(2)SO_(4) . Reason : In different medium, change in oxidation number shown by mangnese is altogether different.

In the permanganate titration, the solution of reductant is always made acidic by adding H_(2)So_(4) rather than HCl or HNO_(3) because :
