Chemistry Planning A + B: The problem: The problem that I will investigate is how to use enthalpy changes of metal reactions to experimentally test the reactivity series of common metals. Therefore the area that I am looking at is reactions involving metals and the heat energy that is evolved when these take place. In brief the reactivity series of metals is a list in which metals are ranked according to their reactivity, from the most reactive metals (such as Pottassium) at the top to Gold the least reactive metal at the bottom. Therefore my research question is "Can enthalpy changes of reaction be used to predict the place of a metal in the metals reactivity series?" Hypothesis: "In reactions between various metals and the same other single reactant, the more reactive the reacting metal the stronger will be the bonds in the metal product formed . This will be observable through...
