The noble metals________________?

Correct answer: C. Are the lowermost in the electro-chemical series of metals

  • A. Are exemplified by Na, K and Li
  • B. Do not resist corrosion very strongly
  • C. Are the lowermost in the electro-chemical series of metals
  • D. None of these

Explanation

Noble metals such as gold, platinum, and silver are very resistant to oxidation and corrosion and are placed toward the less-active, lower end of the usual electrochemical activity series. Sodium, potassium, and lithium are highly reactive rather than noble.
