Solution

Reactivity series is the list of elements arranged in the decreasing order of their reactivity.
Any element placed below hydrogen in the reactivity series cannot displace hydrogen from dilute acids.
Among the given ones Cu (Copper) is below hydrogen in the reactivity series.
Therefore, copper metal do not react with dilute sulphuric acid.
