Essential Chemistry for IGCSE - Metals And Reactivity (Section 2 - No. 10)
What are the key features of an electrochemical series (metal reactivity series)?
It ranks metals by their reactivity.
It's based on the tendency of metals to lose electrons.
It enables us to predict the outcome of single displacement reactions.
It lists elements in order of decreasing atomic size.
Explanation
An electrochemical series lists metals by their reactivity (the tendency to lose electrons), and enables us to predict the outcome of single displacement reactions.
