Solution

The correct option is B False
  1. In a reactivity series, the most reactive metal is placed at the top and the least reactive element at the bottom.
  2. More reactive elements have a greater tendency to lose electrons and form positive ions.
  3. Since Sodium (Na) is more reactive than Calcium(Ca), therefore it is placed above Calcium in the reactivity series.

Therefore, the given statement- Calcium lies above Sodium in the reactivity series is false.
