a ____electropositive metal, displaces _____ from its
aqueous solution.
Answers
1) more
2) less electropositive.
Examples:
=> Mg can displace Cu from CuSO4.
=> Cu can displace Ag from AgNO3 solution.
=>Fe can displace Cu from CuCl2 solution.

Remember:
=>The higher the metal in the metal activity series, the more electropositive it is or the lesser electronegative it is.
=> The lower the metal in the metal activity series the lesser electropositive it is or the more electronegative it is.
