Consider the following data for five hypothetical elements: Q, W, X, Y, and Z. Rank the elements from most reactive to least reactive. Combination Observation of reaction Q W Reaction occurs X Z No reaction W Z Reaction occurs Q Y Reaction occurs Place the element symbols from most to least reactive.
Combination Observation of reaction
Q + w+ Reaction occurs
x +z+ No reaction
w + z+ Reaction occurs
Q+ + Y Reaction occurs

Answer:

Y, Q, W, Z and X

Y > Q > W > Z > X

Explanation:

To know the most reactive element, the element will be able to displace other metal in it compound. We also have to observe if the reaction occur. If the reaction didn't occur, that means the element is not reactive than the metal found in the other reactant. Invariably their will be no displacement.

Q + w+ Reaction occurs

Q element displace the metal w in it compound . This means Q is more reactive.

x +z+ No reaction

No reaction here. This means x is less reactive than z as it couldn't displace z in it compound.

w + z+ Reaction occurs

w is more reactive than z as it displaces z in it compound.

Q+ + Y Reaction occurs

Y is more reactive than Q as it displaces Q in it compounds.

Therefore, the most reactive to the least reactive is arrange as follows.

Y, Q, W, Z and X
