H2 gas is released. You can test it by collected some of the gas in a test tube (it is lighter than air so it floats UP) and hold a lighted match at the mouth of the test tube. A slight explosion shows the presence of H2 gas.
Zn + 2HCl ==> H2 + ZnCl2.

thank u so much :)
Drop a piece of mossy zinc in 3 mL of HCI in a test tube. Observe and result. Write the chemical equation and indicate the type of chemical reaction.
