The only reaction that will most likely take place based on the activity series is; C: Ba + Na₂CO₃
<h3>Activity Series</h3>
From the activity series given, we can say that during a displacement reaction, the more reactive metal will always displace the lesser reactive metal from a compound.
Let us look at each of the given options;
A) Ag + FeCl₃
From the activity series, Silver(Ag) is less reactive than Iron(Fe) and as such Silver cannot displace iron from its' compound.
B) Zn + CaO
Zinc (Zn) is a less reactive metal than Calcium (Ca), so it cannot cannot displace Calcium from its' compound.
C) Ba + Na₂CO₃
Barium (Ba) is a more reactive metal than Sodium (Na), and therefore Barium will displace sodium from its compound in a displacement reaction.
D) Cr + KNO₃
Chromium (Cr) is a lesser reactive metal than Potassium (K), and it therefore cannot displace Potassium from its compound.
Complete question is;
Which reaction will most likely take place based on the activity series? Li > K Ba > CaNa > Mn > Zn > Cr> Fe> Cd Ni > H > Sb > Cu > Ag > Pd > Hg > Pt
A. Ag + FeCl₃
B. Zn + CaO
C. Ba + Na₂CO₃
D. Cr + KNO₃

I believe the first choice
What can cause a decrease in calcium absorption is; High Levels of Sodium
<h3>What causes poor calcium absorption?</h3>
Calcium absorption varies by type of food. The absorption of calcium from dairy products and fortified foods is about 30%.
Some compounds in plants like oxalic acid and phytic acid can decrease calcium absorption by forming indigestible salts with calcium, thereby decreasing its absorption.
Now, we can conclude that calcium absorption is decreased by high levels of sodium because excessive salt can interfere with calcium absorption.
