Some metals, like _______ and _______, are so unreactive that nothing will happen.

Adding acid to carbonatesAdding acid to carbonatesCarbonates are compounds that react with acids to make _________ __________ gas. This makes the mixture _________. When all of the carbonate is used up the _________ will stop.

Carbonates used to be used as building materials but aren’t any more because acid rain would eventually ________ the building.
