Ineed asap! predict the products in the reaction between calcium and hydrochloric acid. if you were conducting this reaction in a lab, what would be your clue that this was a chemical reaction? if silver replaced calcium as one of the reactants, what would you expect to happen?

Calcium reacts gently with water to give hydrogen and calcium hydroxide, which is only slightly soluble, thus slows down the reaction.

It will be assumed that hydrochloric acid used is a dilute aqueous solution.

However, calcium reacts with hydrochloric acid to give calcium chloride which is readily soluble in water, and hydrogen, being a typical reaction of relatively active metals with acids.
Ca(s) + 2HCl(aq)  -> CaCl2(aq) +H2(g) ↑ + heat

The clues that it is a chemical reaction could be:
- formation of a new substance, gaseous hydrogen
- disappearance of a metallic solid in the solution
- heat formed during the vigorous reaction.

As silver is below hydrogen in the electrochemical series, it will not be expected to react with dilute hydrocloric acid. (however, it dissolves in oxidizing acid such as nitric acid, but not displacing hydrogen as a product).

Iwould you figure it out but you don't have a picture or in your question as to what the physical property you're looking for is
