In this question, you should use the Activity Series table provided below: Question: You add a piece of solid nickel (Ni(s)) to four separate test tubes – where each test tube initially contains an aqueous solution with various metal ions dissolved as described below: 1) ZnCl(aq) 2) LiCl(aq) 3) PbCl2(aq) 4) MgCl(aq) Question: Identify all of the systems (test tubes) that would yield a new solid metal (other than nickel) by the addition of the nickel. In other words, which of the following redox reactions spontaneously occur in response to the addition of solid nickel?
