Question

How do you say this in words?
Zn (s) + 2 HCl (aq) --> ZnCl2 (aq) + H2 (g)

Answer 1

Zinc reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce zinc chloride and hydrogen gas.

Answer 2

Or instead of "to produce" you can use "and yields" ? Not sure if you would want to include the states of matter the products & reactants are in, too. You'd want to check a note for that kind of thing.
