Equal lengths of magnesium ribbons are t...

Equal lengths of magnesium ribbons are taken in test tubes A and B. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is added to test tube A, while acetic acid `(CH_(3)COOH)` is added to test tube B. Amount and concentration taken for both the acids are same. In which test tube will the fizzing occur more vigorously and why?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine in which test tube the fizzing will occur more vigorously when equal lengths of magnesium ribbons are placed in hydrochloric acid (HCl) and acetic acid (CH₃COOH), we can analyze the reactions taking place in each test tube step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Reactants:** - In test tube A, we have magnesium (Mg) and hydrochloric acid (HCl). - In test tube B, we have magnesium (Mg) and acetic acid (CH₃COOH). ...
