What is the reactivity series of metals and how is it determined?

1

A list of metals in order of decreasing reactivity, Based on their atomic number

2

A list of non-metals in order of increasing reactivity, Based on their melting point

3

A list of metalloids in order of decreasing reactivity, Based on their density

4

A list of noble gases in order of increasing reactivity, Based on their boiling point

Answer and Solution

Answer

A. A list of metals in order of decreasing reactivity, Based on their atomic number

Solution:

The reactivity series of metals is a list of metals arranged in order of decreasing reactivity. It is determined based on how readily a metal loses electrons to form positive ions in chemical reactions.
