Reactivity Series Table

Reactivity Series Definition

The arrangement of metals in a series of decreasing order of their tendencies to react is called the Reactivity Series of metal. Therefore, the least reactive metal (Platinum) is placed at the bottom while, the highly reactive metal (Potassium) is at the top of this series....

Reactivity Series Table

The Reactivity series of some of the most common metals, arranged in descending order of reactivity which can be given as follows:...

Reactivity Series of Metals

To determine if a metal can displace another in a single displacement reaction, the data provided by the reactivity series can be utilized. It can also be used to find out how reactive various metals are to acids and water....

Properties of Reactivity Series

The reducing tendency of metals at the top of the table has high, which is why they are easily oxidized. These metals can get tarnished or corrode very easily. For example, sodium due to its high reactivity explodes as came in contact with air or water, thus needs to be kept away from moisture and air, and dipped in kerosene....

Uses of Reactivity Series

The reactivity series provides the study of properties and reactivities of the metals, Apart from this reactivity series also provides several other important applications. For example, the result we get out of the reactions between metals and acids, metals and water, and single displacement reactions between metals can be predicted....

Reactivity Series Trick

The basic strategy for learning the reactivity series is to group these elements into meaningful groups and then use a mnemonic for each group....
