Write word equations and then balanced equations for the reaction taking place when -
$(a)$ dilute sulphuric acid reacts with zinc granules.
$(b)$ dilute hydrochloric acid reacts with magnesium ribbon.
$10 \,mL$ of a solution of $NaOH$ is found to be completely neutralised by $8 \,mL$ of a given solution of $HCl$. If we take $20 \,mL$ of the same solution of $NaOH$, the amount of $HCl$ solution (the same solution as before) required to neutralise it will be ...... $mL$
Write an equation to show the reaction between Plaster of Paris and water.
Why does distilled water not conduct electricity, whereas rain water does ?
Metal compound $A$ reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid to produce effervescence. The gas evolved extinguishes a burning candle. Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction if one of the compounds formed is calcium chloride.
