Step-by-Step Verified Solution
Zn + 2dil. HCl ZnCl2 + H2
Zn + 2NaOH Na2ZnO2 + H2
From one mole of Zn, 1 mol of H2 is produced by both NaOH and HCl.
The ratio of the volume of H2 is 1 : 1
Zn + 2NaOH
From one mole of Zn, 1 mol of H2 is produced by both NaOH and HCl.
The ratio of the volume of H2 is 1 : 1
