Q-00001527
Why do some metals displace less reactive metals from their compounds in solution or molten form?
1
To increase their reactivity
2
To form alloys
3
To achieve stability by gaining electrons
4
To achieve stability by losing electrons
Answer and Solution
Answer
D. To achieve stability by losing electrons
Solution:
Some metals can displace less reactive metals from their compounds in solution or molten form to achieve stability by losing electrons. This displacement reaction helps the more reactive metal attain a stable electron configuration.
