✓ Answer: C Hydrogen
When metals react with acids, they typically produce hydrogen gas as one of the products. This reaction is a common example of a single displacement or substitution reaction, where the metal displaces hydrogen ions from the acid, resulting in the formation of a salt and the release of hydrogen gas. Hydrogen gas is colorless and odorless, making it difficult to detect without proper equipment.
