To determine which of the given reactions will not occur, we need to consider the reactivity series of metals. The reactivity series is a list of metals arranged in order of decreasing reactivity. Metals higher in the series can displace metals lower in the series from their compounds in solution. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Reactivity Series**: - The common reactivity series from most reactive to least reactive is: Potassium (K), Sodium (Na), Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), Aluminum (Al), Zinc (Zn), Iron (Fe), Lead (Pb), Copper (Cu), Silver (Ag), Gold (Au). - From this series, we can see that Magnesium (Mg) is more reactive than Iron (Fe) and Copper (Cu). ...
