(N/A) $(i)$ The reaction of zinc metal with dilute hydrochloric acid produces zinc chloride and hydrogen gas: $Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) \rightarrow ZnCl_{2}(aq) + H_{2}(g)$.
$(ii)$ The reaction of sodium carbonate with dilute hydrochloric acid produces sodium chloride,water,and carbon dioxide gas: $Na_{2}CO_{3}(s) + 2HCl(aq) \rightarrow 2NaCl(aq) + H_{2}O(l) + CO_{2}(g)$.
$(iii)$ The reaction of sodium hydroxide (a base) with dilute hydrochloric acid (an acid) is a neutralization reaction producing sodium chloride and water: $NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) \rightarrow NaCl(aq) + H_{2}O(l)$.
