5. What is meant by the reactivity series of metals? Arrange the
following metals in an increasing order of their reactivity towards
water:
Zn, Fe, Mg, Na. Al
Answers
Answer:
In chemistry, a reactivity series (or activity series) is an empirical, calculated, and structurally analytical progression of a series of metals, arranged by their "reactivity" from highest to lowest.
These metals are arranged in ascending order according to their reactivity:-
Na(Sodium) > Mg(Magnesium) > Al(Aluminium) > An(Zinc) > Fe(Iron)
Answer:
In chemistry, a reactivity series (or activity series) is an empirical, calculated, and structurally analytical progression of a series of metals, arranged by their "reactivity" from highest to lowest.
In order of decreasing reactivity, the metals potassium, sodium, lithium, calcium, magnesium, zinc, iron and copper can be put in order of their reactivity from their reactions with water and dilute acids. ... You should also note that a more reactive metal will displace a less reactive metal from one of its compounds.
