As we have learnt,

Aluminium reacts with diluted HCl  and liberates Hgas.

\mathrm{2Al+6HCl\rightarrow 2AlCl_3+3H_{2}}

Elements with lower reactivity are not able to displace hydrogen from acids and Hgas is not obtained.

\mathrm{Ag,Au,Cu+HCl\rightarrow No\: Reaction}

Therefore,option (4) is correct.
