The colour the solution turns in the presence of phenolthalien shows you that the solution is

• Acidic

• Alkaline

• Neutral

• Sour

When a piece of magnesium ribbon is placed into a test tube containing some hydrochloric acid, a reaction takes place. We know this because...

• The magnesium starts to fizz and produce carbon dioxide gas.

• The temperature of the test tube increases

• The temperature of the test tube decreases

• The temperature of the test tube increases and hydrogen gas is produced.
