IQ2: How is the reactivity of various metals predicted?
Students:
● conduct practical investigations to compare the reactivity of a variety of metals in:
– water
– dilute acid
– oxygen
– other metal ions in solution
● construct a metal activity series using the data obtained from practical investigations and compare this series with that obtained from standard secondary-sourced information

This is the procedure to determine a metal reactivity series.
Notes:
- You should be able to distinguish rapid, slow and now reactions.
- You should also be able to test for the products of reactions with water and acid
- You should recognise the metals which react with cold water vs steam (See Col Video)
