Which metal reacted with the most solutions, and which one with the fewest? What
conclusions can you draw about the reactivity of the metals. List them from most reactive
to the least reactive.
3. For each metal, write the oxidation half-reaction.
4.List the metals based on your experimental results in an abbreviated activity series.
5.Compare your activity series (from ques 5) with the one from your textbook. Do they agree? Explain
6.Choose one chemical reaction from your experiment and write molecular, ionic,
and net-ionic equation.
7.What would be the relative placement of an unknown metal in your activity series,
based on the data provided below?
a) No visible reaction between an unknown metal and H2O, 2MHCl and ZnSO4.
b) Unknown metal + Cu(NO3)2changed color and a black solid was observed.
Explain why the Statue of Liberty was made with copper instead of zinc.
