Copper is considered to be a relatively unreactive metal. However, it can slowly react with oxygen in the air to form a layer of copper oxide on its surface, which is known as tarnishing. Additionally, copper can react with certain acids and other substances under specific conditions.

Is lead reactive or nonreactive?
Lead is a moderately reactive metal. It reacts slowly with air and water, but does not react as vigorously as highly reactive metals like sodium or potassium.
Is argon reactive or nonreactive nonmetal?
Argon is a nonreactive noble gas. It is considered nonmetallic in its properties, and it is inert and does not readily form chemical compounds with other elements.
Is silicon a reactive or nonreactive?
Silicon is considered to be relatively nonreactive because it forms a protective layer of silicon dioxide when exposed to oxygen in the air, preventing further reaction with other substances. However, under certain conditions, it can react with other elements to form compounds known as silicates.
What are the products when metals react with strong acids?
Usually, an acid reacts with a metal to form a metal salt and hydrogen. However this depends if the metal is reactive or not. For example, magnesium, (Mg) is a violently reactive metal to hydrochloric acid; therefore, making magnesium chloride and hydrogen:Magnesium+Hydrochloric acid=Magnesium chloride+HydrogenAlso, if an experiment takes place, between a metal and a acid, bubbles will appear showing hydrogen. But remember, only with reactive metals!However, if the metal is nonreactive it will not react with dilute acids such as;sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid and nitric acid. Take copper for example. Copper is nonreactive to dilute acids. However, a brief reaction still takes place, but not all the copper will react. When the reaction takes place a layer of either copper sulfate, copper chloride, or copper nitrate will form between the dilute acid and the copper. Not all the copper has reacted, (only a layer). This layer with the remaining copper is insoluble in water, and quickly forms a coating around the copper which prevents further attacks from acids. You can also know if metals are nonreactive or reactive, by looking at the reactivity series. They go in order starting with the most reactive.Most reactive1. Potassium2. Sodium3.

Is molybdenum reactive or nonreactive?
Molybdenum is considered a moderately reactive metal. It does not react with water or oxygen at room temperature, but it can react with acids and certain other chemicals under appropriate conditions.
Is potassium a reactive or nonreactive?
Reactive
Is copper nonreactive with other substances?
No. Copper forms a number of chemical compounds. If you want a metal about that color, gold is very nearly non-reactive.
Is platinum reactive or non reactive?
It is a nonreactive metal
Does nonmetals are highly reactive while metals are completely nonreactive?
It is not true; many metals are very reactive and several nonmetals are nonreactive.
Is krypton reactive or nonreactive?
Non-reactive, along with all other noble gasses.
Is the element gold reactive or nonreactive?
It is reactive, but does not react to most chemicals.It does react to chlorine and aqua regia.
Is Plutonium nonreactive?
Plutonium is a very reactive metal: the Pauling electronegativity is 1,28.
Is lead reactive or nonreactive?
Lead is a moderately reactive metal. It reacts slowly with air and water, but does not react as vigorously as highly reactive metals like sodium or potassium.
Is argon reactive or nonreactive nonmetal?
Argon is a nonreactive noble gas. It is considered nonmetallic in its properties, and it is inert and does not readily form chemical compounds with other elements.
What does mean nonreactive?
Non-reactive means there is no response when exposed to stimulus or to other materials.
Can an alloy be made from every non reactive metal melted together?
I do not know the name of the metal, witch is NONREACTIVE. I know that only noble gases witch are nonreactive.
Is copper more reactive then aluminium?
No, copper is less reactive than aluminum.
