b) Co < Ni < Fe < Zn < Al
c) Fe < Ni < Co < Al < Zn
d) Ni < Co < Fe < Zn < Al
e) Ni < Fe < Co < Zn < Al

Answer 1

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first statement, the order is:

=> Co < Fe < Zn < Al

For the second statement it is,

=> Ni < Co < Fe

So, combining the order becomes:

=> Ni < Co < Fe < Zn < Al
