Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

What does the reactivity series rank metals by?

  1. How readily they lose electrons / react
  2. Their mass
  3. Their colour
  4. Their melting point
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: AHow readily they lose electrons / react
The reactivity series lists metals in order of how readily they react, which relates to how easily they form positive ions by losing electrons.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 2/3

Metals more reactive than carbon are usually extracted by:

  1. Electrolysis
  2. Heating with carbon
  3. Heating alone
  4. Filtering
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: AElectrolysis
Metals above carbon in the reactivity series (e.g. aluminium) are extracted by electrolysis because carbon cannot displace them.

AQA GCSE Chemistry: Chemical changes: reactivity series and extraction of metals FAQ

How many AQA GCSE Chemistry questions on Chemical changes: reactivity series and extraction of metals are there on Kramizo?
Kramizo currently has 20 exam-board-aligned practice questions on Chemical changes: reactivity series and extraction of metals for AQA GCSE Chemistry, with new questions added every week. Each question gives you instant feedback and a full examiner-style mark scheme that tells you exactly what would earn marks on a real AQA paper. The questions span the full difficulty range — from straightforward recall (level 1) right up to multi-step reasoning and evaluation (level 3) — so the bank works for first-pass revision and final exam-week stress testing alike.
Is Kramizo free for AQA GCSE students preparing for Chemistry?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown. That free quota works across every subject and every topic in our bank, so you can mix Chemical changes: reactivity series and extraction of metals practice with other Chemistry topics or even switch to a totally different AQA subject without paying anything. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds detailed progress analytics, but the free tier is the real product — used by thousands of GCSE, IGCSE and CSEC students.
Are the Chemical changes: reactivity series and extraction of metals questions aligned to the official AQA GCSE Chemistry syllabus?
Every question is written against the published AQA GCSE Chemistry specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real AQA paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from AQA.
How is Chemical changes: reactivity series and extraction of metals typically tested on AQA GCSE Chemistry papers?
Chemical changes: reactivity series and extraction of metals appears across multiple question types on real AQA GCSE Chemistry papers — most commonly as multiple-choice questions in the objective section, structured short-answer questions in the main paper, and occasionally as part of an extended response. Kramizo's practice bank reflects that mix: 4-option MCQs, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank key terms, multi-select questions, and ordering questions. Working through the bank gives you exposure to every question style examiners actually use.
