Equal lenghts of magnesium ribbons are t...

Equal lenghts of magnesium ribbons are taken is test tubes a and b hydrochloric acid (HCl) is added to test tube a, while acetic acid `(CH_3COOH)` is added to test tube b. amount and concentration taken for both the acids are same. In which test tube wil the fizzing occur more vigorously and why?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The fizzing will occur more vigorously in test tube A because HCI is a stronger acid than `CH_(3)COOH` and reacts more readily with magnesium than `CH_(3)COOH.`
