(N/A) Activity: Take a small amount of the salt solution of metal $P$ in a test tube and add metal $Q$ to it. Since metal $Q$ is more reactive than metal $P$, it will displace metal $P$ from its salt solution.
Chemical equation:
Metal $Q + \text{Salt solution of } P \rightarrow \text{Salt solution of } Q + \text{Metal } P$
