Lesson details
Lesson outcome
I can use experimental evidence to organise several metals in order of their reactivity.
Show transcript
Some metals react with acid to produce a metal salt and hydrogen gas.
Some metals react with water to produce a metal hydroxide and hydrogen gas.
Some metals react with oxygen to form a metal oxide.
The reactivity series for metals shows how vigorously metals react, compared to each other.
The higher the position of a metal in the reactivity series, the more vigorously it is likely to react.
