Answer: (3) silicon
Explanation:
Element is a pure substance which is composed of atoms of similar elements.It can not be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions.Example: Silicon (Si)
Compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.It can be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions. Example: ethane
, propanone
and water 
Answer:
Radioactive dating is a method of dating rocks and minerals using radioactive isotopes. This method is useful for igneous and metamorphic rocks, which cannot be dated by the stratigraphic correlation method used for sedimentary rocks. Over 300 naturally-occurring isotopes are known.
I found this is the order of activity in Internet
Mn>Zn>Cr>Fe>Cd>Co>Ni>Pb
You can see that Fe is between Cr and Cd
Cr is more active than Fe and Fe is more active than Cd.
The Fe will displace Cd but not Cr.
Answer:Fe
