Question

Chemical Reactions From your observations, arrange Cu, Ag. Pb, Zn, and Mg in order of their activities, list- ing the most active first. Explain how you determined this order using your experimen- tal data b. Where would H* fit in the activity series you developed in question 1 (use your experi- mental data)? Can you conclusively determine its position? Why or why not? If not, what experiment could you perform to determine its position? c. Would magnesium react with dilute sulfuric acid? Why or why not? If so, write a bal- anced chemical reaction?

Answer 1

@ mgyzny g) Zn) Pb) cu) og This onder based onder based on standard reduction This is the activity Order experimental data, potential on Miten on mèt then , Eo to valu increases down the group so own the group tendency of one metal to lose electron decreases .l.e. activity decreases Usually it will fit beoween Pb 27 & C 2T . But these are based on etadard reduction values. Now actual reduction potential depends on relative cone. mg will react with dil its to reduce ti to ti gas & itref will be oxidused to mg 27 mg + H2SO4 mgsoy t 118) I mg 21 present will above tt is. electrochemical series. So it has can reduction potential yalue u com пира 111 от dui. Insoy so whim]
