Answer: Zinc is more reactive than iron.

Explanation:

In the series of metals higher metal are more reactive and vigorous reactions takes places with water, acid and oxygen. When we compare zinc and iron, zinc is more electropositive than iron, its atomic size is bigger than iron and has more electrons.  

Zinc has more electrons in the "d" sub shell so has more hybridisation option when compared to iron.
