what is reactivity series?
Answers
Answer:
When metals react with other substances, the metal atoms always form positive ions. The easier it is for a metal to form its positive ion, the more reactive the metal is. Metals can be arranged in order of their reactivity. Very unreactive metals, such as gold and platinum, are found in the Earth’s crust as pure metals. These are called native metals.

In chemistry, a reactivity series (or activity series) is an empirical, calculated, and structurally analytical progression[1] of a series of metals, arranged by their "reactivity" from highest to lowest.[2][3][4] It is used to summarize information about the reactions of metals with acids and water, single displacement reactions and the extraction of metals from their ores.
