Exploring the activity series Javalab with practice

Front

What is the activity series?

Back

The activity series is a list of metals arranged in order of decreasing reactivity. It helps predict which metals can displace others in chemical reactions.

Front

Which metal is more reactive: Copper or Silver?

Back

Copper is more reactive than Silver.

Front

What happens when a more reactive metal is placed in a solution of a less reactive metal's salt?

Back

The more reactive metal will displace the less reactive metal from the solution.

Front

What is the result of the reaction: Li + NaF?

Back

Li will replace Na in the reaction, resulting in LiF and Na.

Front

What does it mean if a reaction is said to occur based on the activity series?

Back

It means that a more reactive metal can displace a less reactive metal from its compound.

Front

In the reaction Cd (s) + HCl (aq), does the reaction occur?

Back

Yes, the reaction occurs because Cd is more reactive than H.

Front

What is the role of the activity series in predicting chemical reactions?

Back

The activity series helps determine whether a specific metal will react with a compound based on its reactivity compared to other metals.

Front

Which metal could X represent in the reaction: X + Ca(NO3)2 → Ca + X(NO3)2?

Back

X could represent Barium (Ba), as it is more reactive than Calcium.

Front

What is a displacement reaction?

Back

A displacement reaction is a type of chemical reaction where one element displaces another in a compound.

Front

What is the significance of reactivity in metals?

Back

Reactivity determines how easily a metal can participate in chemical reactions, influencing its use in various applications.
