Match List - I (Position of the Metal in the Activity Series) with the List - II (Related Reduction Process) and select the correct option using the codes given below.

List - I(Position of the Metal in the Activity Series) List - II(Related Reduction Process)
(A) The bottom of the series (I) Electrolysis
(B) The top of the series (II) Reduction by heat alone
(C) The lower regions of the series (III) Found in native state
(D) The middle of the series (IV) Reduction using carbon or some other reducing agent
  1. $A - II, B - III, C - IV, D - I$
  2. $A - II, B - I, C - IV, D - III$
  3. $A - III, B - I, C - II, D - IV$
  4. $A - III, B - I, C - IV, D - II$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The metals which are placed high in the reactivity series are obtained by electrolysis, middle metals by reduction using carbon, lower by heating alone and metals at bottom of the series are found in native state.
