The Reactivity Series

Science: KS3, topic 2.6.7

The Reactivity Series

You are able to predict how metals will react by using the reactivity series of metals. This is like a league table of how reactive metals are.

The reactivity series

The reactivity series

  • As you go down the table, the metals get less reactive.
  • Carbon and hydrogen are non-metals that are often placed in reactivity series.

Test yourself on The Reactivity Series

  • The Reactivity Series

  • Which statement is correct about these metals in the reactivity series?

  • Where do the most reactive metals go in the reactivity series?

  • Name the two non-metals that are often placed in the reactivity series

  • What can the reactivity series help you work out?
