Question

A silver spoon is kept immersed in an aqueous solution of copper Sulphate.What change would be observed in the spoon as well as in the solution ? justify your answer

Answer 1

Thanks for asking the question.
When a silver spoon is immersed in a copper sulphate solution, nothing happens. It is because silver is less reactive than copper according to the electrochemical series, so it can not displace copper from copper sulphate solution. However copper would have replaced silver if the case was opposite.
Hope it helps.
