Question

Platinum is more active than gold but less active than silver. Where does it belong in the activity series?

Madi Sousa · Accepted Answer

and this problem. We&#x27;re essentially building our intuition and understanding of the activity Siris of medals. And we&#x27;re told we have to investigate where platinum would lie in the activity. Siri&#x27;s well, platinum is a metal that is more reactive than gold, but less reactive than silver. So if we were to look at the activity Siri&#x27;s, we would know that platinum would lie above gold and below silver. So if you were to look at the activity Siri&#x27;s, it would be somewhere near Mercury because it&#x27;s again above gold below silver. So I hope that this problem helped you understand a little bit about how we can determine or predict where a metal would lie on the activity. Siri&#x27;s based on reactivity, yeah.

William Braaton · Answer

let&#x27;s say we&#x27;re trying to predict where we would find the element platinum on the activity. Siri&#x27;s given that platinum is not corrosive, naturally, so from the problem, we know that. But, um, does not I also know that we&#x27;re trying to find where but at on, let&#x27;s record with the activity. Siri&#x27;s ranks the activity or reactive of medals from most at the up to least at the bottom. Let&#x27;s also recall that corrosion is in a metal reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere to form a metal oxide. Since we know that platinum does not corrode, we already can predict that it will be somewhere towards the least end of the activity. Siri&#x27;s. We also know that sense it does not corrode. It is not active enough to react with oxygen. And since most of the medals on the activity Siri&#x27;s do react with oxygen, I would predict that platinum will be found at the lowest category on the activity. Siri&#x27;s. If we go look at the actual activity, Siri&#x27;s, we will see that platinum is indeed in the lowest category of medals. It also shows that each category more reactive than platinum, those react with oxygen perform oxides. Therefore, we will confirmed that platinum is in the least reactive group on the activity. Siri&#x27;s

So the activity Sealy&#x27;s for the medals is organized, based My tablets going to School but is organized based on there ability to displace. Hi did run. Um, Then I said, with water based on the activity ceilings, we can predict If I may, the action will. You could or not. So with being considered an activity, Sealy&#x27;s so we&#x27;ll have a bunch of medals hydrogen in a bunch of medals. So for the medals above hydrogen, they can displace hydrogen, um, water well and food. And they are long reducing agents that lose the tones and are therefore oxidize metals. The low hydrogen on the activity Sealy&#x27;s will not the act with by the water well on acid, and they are strong oxidizing agents that gain electrons and are therefore reduced themselves.

Allison Krajewski · Answer

okay, so I&#x27;m not taking in. Siri&#x27;s of metals is organized by having your most reactive metals at the top of your list and your least reactive metals at the bottom of your list. So this is just an example from the book. This doesn&#x27;t include all of the medals that were in the book, but this is a good example to be able to visualize how these metals organized because anything that&#x27;s more reactive, such a CZ lithium is going to be able to displace any metal that is work below it. On the other hand, if you have a less reactive metal such as gold, if you were to have a displacement reaction with any metal that is above gold, it wouldn&#x27;t be able to displace it, so it&#x27;s not going to be able to react.

Kaitlynn Wade · Answer

Each element has a certain level of activity, which means each element has a certain level of reactivity. Metals that have a greater activity will be more willing to lose electrons to form positive ions and the office. It is true for non metals for non metals, the greater reactivity means the greater ease of gain of electrons to form a negative ion, an example of activity of halogen or medals is seen on the white board in their reactivity. There is a general trend that the reactivity goes up going down to up on the periodic table. Therefore, there should be a arrow going this way as F two will have the greatest reactivity for the greatest.
