Solution

The correct option is A Fe
The reactivity series is sometimes quoted in the strict reverse order of standard electrode potentials, when it is also known as the "electrochemical series":

Li>Cs>Rb>K>Ba>Sr>Na>Ca>Mg>Be>Al>H(water)>Mn>Zn>Cr>Fe>Cd>Co
>Ni>Sn>Pb>H(inacids)>Cu>Fe(+3)>Hg>Ag>Pd>Ir>Pt>Au

So, according to this series, Iron is most reactive than Pt,Ni,Co
