Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Compared to zinc, copper is less reactive. Because copper metal can delocalise its outer electrons more easily than zinc, this process happens. Since copper has a stronger metallic bond than zinc, more energy is needed to break this link for copper to react. Therefore, it can be said that out of all the metals, zinc is the most reactive, while copper is the least.
The corrected statement would be that, “Copper is less reactive than zinc”.
