Samples of four metals A, B, C and D were taken and added to the following solution one by one. The results obtained have been tabulated as follows.
| Metal | Iron (II) sulphate | Cooper (II) sulphate | Zinc sulphate | Silver nitrate |
| A | No reaction | Displacement | ||
| B | Displacement | No reaction | ||
| C | No reaction | No reaction | No reaction | Displacement |
| D | No reaction | No reaction | No reaction | No reaction |
Use the Table above to answer the following questions about metals A, B, C and D.
- Which is the most reactive metal?
- What would you observe if B is added to a solution of copper (II) sulphate?
- Arrange the metals A, B, C and D in the order of decreasing reactivity.

उत्तर
- B is most reactive metal.
- If metal B is added to copper (II) sulphate solution, it will displace copper.
- Arrangement of metals in the order of decreasing reactivity B > A > C > D.
