When an acid reacts with a metal, the gas that is typically evolved is hydrogen. The other product formed in this reaction is a salt. Therefore, the correct answer is:

Answer

A. Hydrogen, Salt

Explanation

In this reaction, the acid donates protons (H+ ions), while the metal displaces hydrogen from the acid, resulting in the release of hydrogen gas. The remaining part of the acid combines with the metal to form a salt.

Example

  • When hydrochloric acid (HCl) reacts with zinc (Zn), the products are zinc chloride (ZnCl2) and hydrogen gas (H2).
