Platinum is less reactive than tin. Suggest why steel cans are coated with tin rather than platinum to stop them from rusting.

Important Questions on Reactivity and Rates of Reaction
EASY

IMPORTANT
The teacher told the students that if calcium had been added to dilute sulphuric acid, there would have been a reaction, but that the reaction is too dangerous to do in the laboratory. She also told them that if the lead had been added to dilute sulphuric acid, few bubbles would form but only very slowly. Finally, the teacher told them that If aluminium had been added to the dilute sulphuric acid, it would have been quite vigorous -there would have been a lot of bubbles, they would have heard of some fizzing and the reaction would have given off heat.
Use this information to rewrite the reactivity series in the given table and include these metals too.
