Question:

Is lead more active than aluminum?

I did a activity series lab and on my data table, it shows that lead reacted more than aluminum did, but aluminum is more active than lead. So, why does it show that lead is more active when it really isn't? Is it human error?

Answer:

Aluminum is more active than lead. You should double check your activity data table. If you confirm that the table says that lead is more active than aluminum, the table is in error.
