-taste sour

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

These are the characteristics that apply:

- In a solution taste sour: which is consequence of the H+ concentration.

- Corrode metals: the H+ ion reacts with the metal producing a salt and water

- Produce hydronium ion in solution: as per the Bronsted - Lowry definition an acid is a substance that donates a proton, H+.This proton will react with H2O to form H3O+ (hydronium), as per this scheme:

HA + H2O --> A(-) + H3O(+)
