Dan wanted to find out where zinc should be placed in the reactivity series what test should he do to find the correct position of zinc in the reactivity series?

See what it will react with, eg. oxygen, hydrochloric acid, copper sulphate etc. When you have got this information you can then place it in between the two metals thats results are either sides of Zinc's. Hope this helped, ps this question is from a test. I hope your not cheating as this is wrong...

What is the position of titanium in the reactivity series?
Titanium is placed between aluminium and magnesium.
What is gold's reactivity?
golds reactivity is very low in the reactivity series ....
Where on the reactivity series would Manganese be placed?
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
Ability of a substance to react chemically?
reactivity, the tendency of an element to react with another substance is know n as its reactivity. the more the capacity of an element to react with another substance the more will be its reactivity, the series of elements arranged in their decreasing reactivity is known as reactivity series.
What information is useful for predicting whether metal will replace another metal in compound?
The activity (or reactivity) series determines whether or not a metal will replace another one in a replacement reaction.See the Related Questions to the left for more information about the activity series.
What is the position of titanium in the reactivity series?
Titanium is placed between aluminium and magnesium.
What position is aluminium in the reactive series?
It's 7th in the reactivity series.
Where is carbon placed in the reactivity series and why?
Carbon comes below aluminum and above zinc in the reactivity series: Potassium Sodium Lithium Calcium Magnesium Aluminium CARBON Zinc Iron Tin Lead Copper Silver Gold Platinum
Why are metals resistant to acids?
This depends on the chemical reactivity of the metal (position on the reativity series).
Which rule for the reaction of a metal with oxides of other metals?
Metals placed high in the reactivity series will reduce the oxides of those lower in the series.
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 is gold's reactivity?
golds reactivity is very low in the reactivity series ....
Why francium is not placed at the top of metal reactivity series?
Because francium has a larger atomic radius, due to a higher presence of protons and neutrons.
Why is there no reaction when gold and oxygen mix?
Because Gold (Au) is very unreactive, it is placed at the very bottom of the reactivity series with the exception of platinum.
What factors determines the method used to extract a metal?
Its position on the reactivity series. The more reactive the metal, the harder it is to extract from its ore.
What is Hydrogen's reactivity?
we cant say the reactivity of H but reactivity of H can be ordered or compared with other elements. see the reactivity series
Where on the reactivity series would Manganese be placed?
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
