An active metal is a metal that displaces hydrogen from an acid. Examples of active metals include magnesium, zinc and iron. This type of reaction is also called a single displacement reaction where the active metal 'displaces' the hydrogen from the acid. Examples of reactions involving acids and active metals. 1  Hydrochloric acid + Magnesium â Magnesium chloride + Hydrogen.
Reactions with dilute hydrochloric acid. All the metals react with dilute hydrochloric acid to give bubbles of hydrogen and a colourless solution of the metal chloride. As you might expect for elements in this part of the Periodic Table, the reactions get more vigorous as you go down the Group.Reactions with dilute sulphuric acid.hese are just like the reactions with dilute hydrochloric acid, and you have probably been familiar with the reaction between magnesium and dilute sulphuric acid almost since you started doing chemistry. Bubbles of hydrogen are formed, together with colourless solutions of beryllium or magnesium sulphate.
