Answer:
In a second beaker displacement reaction would take place between Cu and FeSO4.
Reaction:
Cu + FeSO4 → CuSO4 + Fe
Concept:
- Oxidation: Increase in the Oxidation number is termed as oxidation reaction.
- Reduction: Decrease in the oxidation number is termed as reduction reaction.
- Electric Potential energy : A energy needed to move a charge against the electric field.
- The main condition for displacement reaction to occur is that the metal which is in the electrolyte solution form should have electric potential energy value compare to the free metal.
- We can take the electric potential energy values from electrochemical series.
- So when a free metal mixed with the metal having higher electric potential energy value , i.e., more reactive metal atom push it's electrons to the less reactive metal atom and get reduced.
Explanation:
- Here, in this case, Fe is having higher electric potential energy than the Cu an placed above the Cu in the electrochemical series.
- Fe acts as a oxidizing agent and Cu displaces the Fe atom from FeSO4 and convert it to CuSO4 and itself get reduced to Fe.
