Question

Which metal is more active than NI and less active than Zn?

Answer 1

Answer : The correct option is, (2) Cr (Chromium)

Explanation :

The reactivity series of metal are arranged of the reactivity from the highest to the lowest. Reactivity series is used to determine the products of the single displacement reactions. In the single displacement reaction, the most reactive metal displaces the least reactive metal.

From the given reactivity series we conclude that there are two metal (Mg and Cr) are more reactive metal than the Ni and there are two metal (Pb and Cr) are less reactive metal than the Zn. So, the Cr (Chromium) is the metal which is more active than Ni and less active than Zn.

Hence, the correct option is, (2) Cr

Answer 2

Cr is more active than nickel and less active than zinc.
