Question

A large piece of zinc metal is placed in copper II sulfate cuso4 solution the blue solution becomes colourless is copper metal fall to the bottom of the container the resulting solution contains zinc sulphate znso4 what is the balance formula unit total ionic and net ionic equation for the reaction

Answer 1

Answer:

Zinc is more reactive than copper. So, here , on adding zinc to CuSO4 solution, zinc displaces copper from copper sulphate & forms zinc sulphate solution. This is indicated by colour change from blue to colourless. CuSO4 solution has a blue colour while ZnSO4 solution is colourless.

Chemical equation -

Zn(s) + CuSO4(aq) -> Cu(s) + ZnSO4 (aq).

Type of reaction -

It's a displacement reaction.

It's a redox reaction. Oxidation number of Cu decreases from 2 to 0 so it's reduced. Oxidation number of Zn increases from 0 to 2 so it's oxidised.
