A chemist wishes to react 500 g of marble (CaCO3) with an excess of hydrochloric acid. In which of the following forms will the marble react
most rapidly? *

The activity series is shown in the attached picture. if the element is below the other, then you can displace the other. following the activity series as a guide, the reactions are as follows: nickel and aluminum chloride3 ni + 2 alcl₃  → 3 nicl₂ + 2 albarium and copper bromideba + cubr  →  no reaction because cu is less oxidizable than bapotassium nitrate and aluminum3 kno₃ + al  → al(no₃)₃ + 3 ksodium phosphate and zincnaso₄ + zn  → znso₄ + na

Rate law for this reaction israte of the reaction = k[a]²[b].second order in a  means concentration of a in power of two, and  first order in b means concentration of b in power of one.
