Question

2 fill in the blank 1 point use the activity series of metals to decide if a reaction will occur. al(s) + niso4(aq) → choose your answer... choose your answer... no reaction reaction will occur

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the activity series of metals

In the activity series, aluminum (Al) is more reactive than nickel (Ni).

Step2: Analyze the reaction

A more reactive metal can displace a less reactive metal from its salt solution. Since Al is more reactive than Ni, it will displace Ni from \(NiSO_4\). The chemical reaction is \(2Al(s)+3NiSO_4(aq)
ightarrow Al_2(SO_4)_3(aq) + 3Ni(s)\). So a reaction will occur.

Answer:

reaction will occur
