Question
In a solution of lead acetate, a strip of metal M was dipped. After some time, lead from the solution was deposited on the metal strip. Which metal is more reactive, M or lead?
Advertisements
Solution
The metal M is more reactive than lead because M displaces lead from lead acetate solution, which can be done only by an element that is more reactive lead.
