Question

Based on the reactivity series for a few different metals.

What combination of metal will produce the highest voltage?

hintHint:

The combination of more and less reactive elements produces a high voltage.

The correct answer is:


    The battery that has the combination of Mg and Cu produces a high voltage current.
    • Magnesium and copper are the most and least reactive metals, respectively, according to the table provided in the question.
    • The electrochemical potential difference between the metals is directly related to the difference in metal reactivity.
    • Electric current is generated between the two metals.
    • Magnesium can more effectively repel electrons than copper because it is higher up the electrochemical series than copper.
    • From the magnesium to the copper, electrons move along the wires and through the voltmeter.
    • The voltage produced increases with the electrochemical potential difference because the least reactive metal readily accepts the electrons while the most reactive metal readily gives up its electrons.
