Hydrogen



Answer :

Final answer:

Balanced chemical equations for acid and metal reactions.


Explanation:

Let's balance the chemical equations:

  1. (i) Potassium + Hydrochloric acid: 2K + 2HCl → 2KCl + H2
  2. (ii) Sodium + Sulphuric acid: 2Na + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + H2
  3. (iii) Magnesium + Hydrochloric acid: Mg + 2HCl → MgCl2 + H2
