the reactivity series lists elements in order from most reactive to least reactive. in a displacement reaction, a more reactive element will "displace" a less reactive element in a compound, the reactivity series can therefore be used to determine which displacement reactions are possible.

Is sally acorn alive?
Sally Acorn is a fictional character from the Sonic the Hedgehog series. In the current canon, she is alive and well. However, her presence and storyline can vary between different iterations of the series.
What are the names of satellites sent to space by India?
Some of the satellites sent to space by India include INSAT series, GSAT series, CARTOSAT series, and Mars Orbiter Mission (Mangalyaan).
How do they steer the space shuttle?
The space shuttle was steered using a system of thrusters and reaction control jets located on the orbiter and the two solid rocket boosters. These thrusters would fire in specific sequences to adjust the shuttle's course and orientation in space. Astronauts also used a system of onboard computers to input commands for navigation and control.
What Doctor Who series is doomsday in?
"Doomsday" is the final episode of series 2 of the revived Doctor Who series (2005). It features the departure of companion Rose Tyler and the first appearance of the Daleks and Cybermen in the new series.
When was Doctor Who's date of birth?
No one knows his precise date of birth, since his age seems to differ between series, though we know he is around 900 - 1,000. Much of his early life is shrouded in mystery!
Will lead replace silver in a reaction?
Lead is less reactive than silver on the reactivity series, so lead will not replace silver in a single displacement reaction. Silver will stay as it is in the reaction.
Is it impossible for an element to replace atoms of anothe element in a compound?
No. In a displacement reaction, that is exactly what happens. If an element low down in the reactivity series is in a compound, and you add an element that is higher placed in the reactivity series. The more reactive element will displace the less reactive element in the compound.Example:Copper Sulphate - Copper is low in the reactivity series and is in a compoundSodium + Copper Sulphate - Sodium is higher in the reactivity series than copper, and is in it's pure elemental form.Copper + Sodium Sulphate - The Sodium that is higher in the reactivity series has switched places with the Copper, which is lower in the reactivity series.FULL EQUATION:Sodium + Copper Sulphate --> Copper + Sodium Sulphate
What two metals would react with aluminum nitrate in a discplacment reaction?
Copper and zinc can react with aluminum nitrate in a displacement reaction. Aluminum being higher in the reactivity series will displace copper or zinc from their respective nitrates in the reaction.
How can you predict if a metal will replace another in a compound?
You can predict if a metal will replace another in a compound based on the reactivity series of metals. A more reactive metal will displace a less reactive metal from its compound. The position of the metals in the reactivity series will determine whether a displacement reaction will occur.
How can a table listing of metals in an activity series be useful for prending whether a chemical reaction will occur?
An activity series of metals can predict whether a replacement (displacement) reaction will occur. You use the activity series to compare the reactivity of different metals in order to predict whether a replacement reaction will occur. A metal that is above another metal in the series will replace that metal in a compound.
Which type of chart helps predict the outcome of single replacement reaction?
A reactivity series chart helps predict the outcome of single replacement reactions. The chart lists metals in order of their reactivity, showing which metals can replace others in a reaction based on their relative chemical reactivity.
Why is copper sulphate and iron a displacement reaction?
Copper is higher in the reactivity series than iron, so when copper sulfate solution is added to iron, the copper ions in the solution will displace the iron from the iron metal, forming copper metal and iron sulfate. This reaction occurs because metals higher in the reactivity series are more willing to give up electrons and undergo oxidation.
Why does zinc plus copper oxide equal copper plus zinc oxide?
This is a chemical reaction known as a displacement reaction. Zinc has a higher reactivity than copper, so when zinc is added to copper oxide, it displaces copper from the compound forming zinc oxide and copper metal. This reaction occurs because metals higher in the reactivity series can displace metals lower in the series from their compounds.
Does iron and sodium chloride make a displacement reaction?
Apparently, the first person who answered this question said ...'its easy find it out yourself' Buh im just gunna tell yuh dah ....i dnt know miiself :)
Why cant copper displace iron from iron sulphate solution?
Copper is lower in the reactivity series than iron. This means copper is less reactive than iron, so it is unable to displace iron from iron sulfate solution through a displacement reaction. Only metals higher in the reactivity series can displace metals that are lower.
Zinc can displace copper from copper sulphate solution because zinc is?
more reactive than copper. In a displacement reaction, the more reactive element will displace the less reactive element from its compound. Zinc has a higher reactivity than copper on the reactivity series of metals, allowing it to displace copper in the reaction.
When predicting the products for a single replacement reaction what should you refer to?
This is the reactivity series of metals.
