A student tests three metals, R, S and T.
| Metal | Cold water | Dilute hydrochloric acid |
|---|---|---|
| R | reacts to form an alkaline solution | reacts |
| S | no reaction | reacts |
| T | no reaction | no reaction |
Statement 1: R has the greatest tendency to form positive ions.
Statement 2: T could be copper.
Statement 3: S would displace T from a solution of a salt of T.
Statement 4: T would displace S from a solution of a salt of S.
