Reactive metals that are more reactive than
C such as (K, Na, Ca, Mg, Al) cannot be
extracted through heating of their metal
oxides with C
They need to be extracted from their molten
ores using the electrolysis process

Metal Displacement
A metal that is more electropositive can displace
another metal which is less electropositive from
its salt solution
A metal that is located higher in the electrochemical
series can displace another metal which is located
lower in the electrochemical series from its salt
solution
This reaction displacement reaction
Metal Displacement
Example:
Zinc, Zn can displace copper, Cu, from copper (II) nitrate, Cu(NO 3)2
solution
Zn (s) + Cu(NO3)2 (aq)
The zinc, Zn, will dissolve and brown copper solid, Cu, will form
