Iqbal treated a lustrous, divalent element M with sodium hydroxide. He observed the formation of bubbles in reaction mixture. He made the same observations when this element was treated with hydrochloric acid. Suggest how can he identify the produced gas. Write chemical equations for both the reactions.

To identify the produced gas when Iqbal treated the divalent element M with sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Element M**: - The element is described as lustrous and divalent. Lustrous indicates that it is a metal. Since it is divalent (having a valency of +2), it suggests that it can react with both acids and bases. - The element that fits these criteria is Zinc (Zn), which is a divalent metal and exhibits amphoteric behavior. ...
