Magnesium, Iron, Copper. Most reactive - least reactive.
Calcium is more reactive but not as Potassium or Sodium because according to the displacement series Calcium comes as third and the last under the reactive elements of the displacement series.
Both calcium and potassium are alkaline earth metals, but potassium is in the same group (Group 1) as sodium and lithium while calcium is in Group 2. Their reactivity and properties are different, with potassium being more reactive and having a lower melting point compared to calcium.
Potassium, sodium, and lithium are the most reactive metals to water from the options provided. They react vigorously with water, producing hydrogen gas and forming alkaline hydroxides. Calcium and magnesium are less reactive compared to the other three metals when exposed to water.
No, potassium cannot replace calcium in a single replacement reaction because potassium is more reactive than calcium on the activity series of metals. In a single replacement reaction, a metal will only replace another metal if it is higher on the activity series.
No, potassium hydroxide cannot be made by mixing potassium sulfate and calcium hydroxide. Potassium hydroxide is typically produced through the electrolysis of potassium chloride. Mixing potassium sulfate and calcium hydroxide would not result in the formation of potassium hydroxide.
Calcium is more reactive but not as Potassium or Sodium because according to the displacement series Calcium comes as third and the last under the reactive elements of the displacement series.
The reactivity series from highest to lowest reactivity is: potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, aluminum, zinc, iron, lead, copper, silver, gold. In this series, copper is less reactive than calcium, sodium, potassium, and lithium. Copper will not displace these metals from their compounds in solution (e.g., copper will not displace calcium from calcium chloride).
Aluminium is in the middle of the reactivity series of metals. It is more reactive than copper, silver, and gold, but less reactive than sodium, potassium, and calcium.
Both calcium and potassium are alkaline earth metals, but potassium is in the same group (Group 1) as sodium and lithium while calcium is in Group 2. Their reactivity and properties are different, with potassium being more reactive and having a lower melting point compared to calcium.
It is a scale of how reactive metals are here it is potassium most reactive sodium calcium magnesium aluminium zinc iron tin lead silver gold platinum least reactive
Yes.
Potassium.
Cesium is the most chemically reactive metal
Manganese lies between aluminium and zinc in the reactivity series, and forms a 2+ ion. Solutions of manganese (ll) salts are very pale pink (almost colourless) Reactivity sries in order from most reactive to least: Potassium Sodium Lithium Calcium Magnesium Aluminium Manganese Zinc Iron (Hydrogen) Copper
no... Reactivity Table: Lithium, Potassium, Sodium, Calcium, Magnesium, Aluminum, Zinc, Cadmium, Iron, Nickel, Tin, Lead, Arsenic, Antimony, Copper, Mercury, Silver Platinum, and Gold.
Lead can reduce metal ions that are higher in the reactivity series, such as copper or silver. Lead itself is relatively non-reactive and can act as a reducing agent for these more reactive metal ions.
Alkali metal atoms can often be substituted by other atoms under the right conditions An example is Caesium in Caesium Chloride. By heating Caesium chloride with Calcium metal, caesium is substituted by calcium and the caesium can be distilled off at about 700oC under vacuum. This seems surprising, particularly given the higher reactivity of caesium, but the greater lattice energy of calcium chloride makes this the energetically preferred product over caesium chloride and drives the reaction. (As an aside, this was the most terrifying reaction that I ever did in a lab because of the high temperature caesium that is produced...)
