Metals in general have a tendency to evolve hydrogen gas o reacting with acids. In the activity series the metals that are placed above hydrogen evolve the gas on reaction with acids while the metals placed below hydrogen do not evolve the gas on reaction with acids. these metals are regarded as inactive metals. metals placed at the bottom of the series are called noble metals.
Q. Which metal would not produce bubbles of hydrogen gas when added to dilute hydrochloric acid ?

A

Magnesium

B

Sodium

C

Iron

D

Silver
