Answer to Problem 30SSC
In activity series of metal, the organization of metals are done considering the reactivity of the metals.
Explanation of Solution
In the activity series of metals, metals are arranged considering their reactivity. The highly reactive metals are placed above and go down to the least reactive metals. Lithium is the most reactive metal and gold is the least reactive metal. Highly reactive metal replaces a least reactive metal from a compound and thus single displacement reaction occurs.
Highly reactive metals are placed above and least reactive metals are placed below in the activity series.
