Very much so. Potassium is one of the most reactive metals on the Periodic Table, and Zinc is somewhere in the middle in terms of reactivity (not nearly as reactive as alkali metals, much more reactive than precious metals like silver, gold, etc.).

∙ 13y agoBoth Cesium and Potassium react by losing their one valance (outer shell) electron. Cesium has a larger atomic radius and more lower electron shells between its positively charged nucleus and valence electron than does potassium.
This makes it easier for Cesium to lose that electron.

∙ 10y agopotassium is more reactive because it is in the alkali metal group (1st group on the periodic table) which is the most reactive metal group on the periodic table

Is hydrogen recative?
Hydrogen is more reactive than Copper, but less reactive than Zinc which is less reactive than Magnesium which is less reactive than Potassium. Potassium is the most reactive of all, relatively speaking.
What are the Metals more reactive than hydrogen?
sodium, calcium, magnesium, aluminium, zinc, iron, tin and led are metals more reactive than hydrogen.
Is potassium more or less active than sodium?
Potassium is more reactive than sodium
What metals will react with aluminum nitrate?
Metals which are more reactive than aluminium. Eg= Sodium, Magnesium, Potassium, etc
Is potassium more reactive than francium?
Francium is more reactive than potassium.
Is hydrogen recative?
Hydrogen is more reactive than Copper, but less reactive than Zinc which is less reactive than Magnesium which is less reactive than Potassium. Potassium is the most reactive of all, relatively speaking.
What are the Metals more reactive than hydrogen?
sodium, calcium, magnesium, aluminium, zinc, iron, tin and led are metals more reactive than hydrogen.
In bikes is titanium more or less reactive than magnesium?
Titanium is less reactive than magnesium, but it's a moot point. What's labelled as a Magnesium frame is usually a (mainly) Aluminum alloy, with some magnesium in it.
How do you prepare magnesium sulphate in lab?
Mix magnesium powder with copper sulphate. The more reactive magnesium will displace the less reactive copper.
Is potassium more or less active than sodium?
Potassium is more reactive than sodium
What element is less reactive than potassium but more reactive than carbon?
Sodium
Would you expect cesium element 55 to be more or less reactive than potassium?
more reactive
Is calcium sulfide more or less reactive to aluminum?
Chemistry of calcium Calcium is generally more reactive than magnesium
Is magnesium more reactive than sodium?
sodium is more reactive than magnesium!
Sodium is more or less active than magnesium?
Sodium is more reactive then Magnesium as it is a group 1 element and magnesium is a group 2 element
Is Sodium is more reactive than magnesium.?
sodium is more reactive than magnesium!
What metals will react with aluminum nitrate?
Metals which are more reactive than aluminium. Eg= Sodium, Magnesium, Potassium, etc
