Reactivty series of metals?
The reactivity series of metals is a chart listing metals in
order of decreasing reactivity. In general, the more
reactive a metal is: the more vigorously(powerfully) it
reacts with other substances and the more easily it loses
electrons to form positive ions (cations)
The reactivity series
Facts
An inert chemical substance is one
that is not generally reactive. This is a
synonym for "inactive" with respect
to chemical reactions. I
The most reactive
metal is pottasium
which needs to be
kept in oil so that it
doesnt react
The least reactive
metal is
platinum.Although, it is
genrally not addded in
our memorising chart
Most of these elemnts are
stored in oil to avoid it from
reacting with water and
oxygen
