Lead appears to be unreactive because it is a lowest reative element.

pelumiwilliams34: why is it a lowest reactive element

Hey buddy here is ur answer .......

→ This means that lead appears to be remarkably unreactive and does not corrode (wear away) with moisture. 

→ In reactivity series
Pb is on reduction using carbon .

→ Lead is a relatively unreactive post-transition metal.

→ Its weak metallic character is illustrated by its amphoteric nature; lead and lead oxides react with acids and bases, and it tends to form covalent bonds.

→ Lead's high density, low melting point, ductility and relative inertness to oxidation make it useful.



Hope u know very well

pelumiwilliams34: sweet buddy, I really don't get u.... can u be well explanatory... thanks
Sweetbuddy: amm wait i will try my best
pelumiwilliams34: Thanks
Sweetbuddy: hey do u get what i am telling
pelumiwilliams34: are u saying that, because of its weak metallic character, low ductility, high density ND low melting point make it unreactive?
