Iron is more reactive than copper that's why iron displaced with copper to form a ferrous sulphate

Hio....
We know that iron is more reactive than the copper.
When the solution is kept in the iron pot then the iron displaces the copper.
After some time a solution of iron sulphate is formed. This leads to the formation of holes in the vessel.
The reaction can be represented as :-
Fe + CuSO4 → Cu + FeSO4
Hope it is helpful and clear enough to understand....
