Which metal is the least reactive of those listed?
- Zinc
- Magnesium
- Gold
- Iron
-
Where is carbon placed in the reactivity series?
- Between aluminium and zinc
- Above potassium at the top of the series
- Between copper and silver in the series
- Below gold at the bottom of the series
-
Which metal is more reactive than iron?
- Magnesium, which is above iron
- Gold, which is far below iron
- Silver, which is below iron

- Iron
-
A metal displaces copper from copper sulfate solution. What can be concluded?
- The metal is more reactive than copper
- The metal is less reactive than copper
- The metal is more reactive than sulfate
- The metal is the same as copper
-
Which pair of metals would show a displacement reaction in solution?
- Copper added to zinc sulfate solution
- Silver added to copper sulfate solution
