Question

2. In an iron container copper sulphate solution is kept it is observed that way
container develops holes. Why does this happen. Give the chemical conforte
Name the type of reaction
​

Answer 1

Answer:

iron react with copper sulphate so container develops holes.

Fe+CuSo4=FeSo4+Cu

• This is dispalcement reaction.

Answer 2

Answer:

Due to the displacement reaction in iron container with copper sulphate solution. Iron sulphate is formed during this process.

Explanation:

When copper sulphate solution is kept in an iron container. Iron has more reactive power than copper and sulphate ions have more tendency to stay with iron as compared to copper. Displacement reaction occurs between iron container and copper sulphate solution. Due to displacement reaction brown coating is created on the wall of iron container in the form of copper by displacing the iron. The color of solution turns greenish due to presence of Fe2+ ions. The holes can be created in the iron container due to the displacement of iron with copper.

Fe(s) + CuSO4(aq) --> Cu(s) + FeSO4(aq)
