Solution
The correct option is B potassium and gold respectively
The reactivity series follows the order:
K>Na>Ca>Mg>Al>Zn>Fe>Pb>H>Cu>Hg>Ag>Au
Thus, potassium is the most reactive metal so placed at the top in the reactivity series. Gold is least reactive so, placed at the bottom of reactivity series.
