Answer:
Iron is more reactive than copper so CuSo4 react with iron to form FeSo4 iron particles get converted into solution therefore iron pot have holes
Equation: CuSo4+Fe=FeSo4+Cu

Answer:
we know that iron is more reactive than copper. So, when a solution of copper sulphate is kept in an iron pot , then iron being more reactive displaces copper from copper sulphate solution.
CuSO4 + Fe = FeSO4 + Cu
Hence holes are formed in the iron pot.
