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.
Activity 1.1 can be described as â when a magnesium ribbon is burnt in oxygen, it gets converted to magnesium oxide. This description of a chemical reaction in a sentence form is quite long. It can be written in a shorter form. The simplest way to do this is to write it in the form of a word-equation.uring this reaction (1.29), the copper(II) oxide is losing oxygen and is being reduced. The hydrogen is gaining oxygen and is being oxidised. In other words, one reactant gets oxidised while the other gets reduced during a reaction. Such reactions are called oxidation-reduction reactions or redox reactions.
