Question

A property of acids is that they react with metals. If you placed a cut lemon and a raw egg on two spots on bare metal, which of the following would you observe?? A. Only the egg would react.

B. Only the lemon would react.
C. Both the lemon and the egg would react.
D. Neither the lemon nor the egg would react.

Answer 1

I thinks is answer D

Answer 2

The correct answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

Lemon has citric acid which dissolves metal, but again it depends on which type of a metal. Stainless steel does not react with acids but mild steel does. Again citric acid can be used to remove oxides from the metals. it dissolves rust (oxides) and thus removing it from metal surfaces.
