Please only post your questions once. Repeating posts will not get a quicker response. In addition, it wastes our time looking over reposts that have already been answered in another post. Thank you.

Also, please use the same name on all your posts.
Elements react with acids to produce salts. For example, Sodium metal reacts with Hydrocloric acid and produces sodium chloride or common salt.

Thus, sodium reacts with acids, but the resulting salts react differently. If you imagine parents as elements and children as the salts and don't you see they react differently!
