"Carbon and hydrogen are often included in the reactivity series even though they are non-metals. Carbon is included because this helps to explain what happens in the extraction of iron in a blast furnace. Hydrogen is included because any metal below it will not react with dilute acids."

What else can I help you with?
What is Hydrogen's reactivity?
Hydrogen is highly reactive because it has one electron in its outer shell, making it eager to form bonds with other atoms in order to achieve a stable arrangement. It readily reacts with elements like oxygen, forming water, and with metals to form hydrides.
Why hydrogen is included in reactivity series?
Hydrogen is included in the reactivity series because it can act as a reducing agent in chemical reactions, displacing certain metals from their compounds. It can react with metals to form metal hydrides and can also react with non-metals like oxygen to form water. These reactions demonstrate its ability to undergo redox reactions and its position in the reactivity series.
What are elements in acetone?
Carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen
What metal is more reactive copper or aluminum?
Aluminium. This is because aluminum is "higher" than carbon in the reactivity series. You may wish to refer to the reactivity series if you need to compare the relative reactivities of other metals.
What are the elements and numbers of ch4?
It has 4 Hydrogen atoms.It has one carbon atom.
What metal oxides can be converted to the metal by carbon reduction but not by hydrogen reduction?
any metals below carbon in the reactivity series. :)
How do you determine the capacity of elements to displace hydrogen?
The capacity of elements to displace hydrogen can be determined based on their position in the reactivity series. Elements higher in the reactivity series can displace hydrogen from compounds of elements lower in the series. For example, metals like magnesium and zinc can displace hydrogen from water because they are higher in the reactivity series.
What metal can be extracted from its ore by carbon but not by hydrogen?
zinc, iron, tin, lead all ones between carbon and hydrogen in reactivate series
Where do you put aluminum in the reactivity series?
Aluminum is placed above carbon in the reactivity series, meaning it is more reactive than carbon. It reacts with acids to release hydrogen gas and with metal oxides to produce metals. However, it is less reactive than metals like sodium and potassium.
How did you work out the reactivity series of metals?
potassium sodium lithium calcium magnesium aluminium (carbon) zinc iron (hydrogen) copper silver gold
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
What metals does hydrogen places between in the reactivity series?
Between Lead and Copper
Why does Fe reacts with dil. H2SO4 to give hydrogen gas but copper does not?
Becayse Iron (Fe) is higher than hydrogen (H) in the chemical reactivity series so it displaces it forming hydrogen gas and Iron sulphate. But Copper (Cu) is lower than hydrogen in the chemical reactivity series so it cannot dispalce hydrogen thus not liberating hydrogen gas
Where is barium in the reactivity series?
Barium is a more reactive metal and is located near the bottom of the reactivity series. It will react vigorously with water to form barium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.
Does copper react with dilute sulfuric acid?
No, as copper is below Hydrogen in the reactivity series
How much reactivity does aluminum have?
Its reactivity depends upon the conditions , in acids and alkalies it is highly reactive with pure water and air it is unreactive, although in reactivity series it higher than hydrogen.
What metals can be extracted from their oxides using carbon?
Metals that are less reactive than carbon in the reactivity series, such as iron, lead, and copper, can be extracted from their oxides using carbon. The carbon reduces the metal oxide to the metal in a process known as reduction.
