Question

In nature metal a is found in free state while metal b is found in the form of its compounds.Which of these two will be nearer to the top of the activity series of metals?

Answer 1

Metal b.
Because it's existence in the form of compounds gives us an idea that it is more reactive in nature than a. a exists in free started which means that it doesn't readily react.
In reactivity series, a more reactive element is placed higher than the less reactive one. Therefore, Metal b will be near the top of the reactivity series.
