Magnesium & Hydrochloric Acid Reaction

Just a quick video showing þe reaction when magnesium is dropped into pretty concentrated hydrochloric acid. It's an exoþermic single replacement reaction resulting in magnesium chloride in þe solution and hydrogen gas coming off in bubbles. Also, I didn't mention þis in þe video, but it is very important with þis reaction that safety goggles are worn. Þe bubbling can þrow tiny droplets of HCl into þe air, and þat's someþing you don't want to get on your skin, but especially not in your eyes.

A simple short video, but this helped me understand a lot for my homework. Thank you 🙏

This is really helpful for my Science assignment! Thanks

you could just use a balloon as the "apparatus" for collecting the hydrogen if necessary
