Question

Can copper displace iron from iron sulphate solution?

Answer 1

Answer: No

Explanation: According to the reactivity series, Cu is less reactive when compared to that of Iron. Hence during the reaction, iron tends to be more reactive due to which copper fails to displace iron from its salt solution.

Hence Copper does not displace iron in Iron Sulphate solution.

But the opposite is possible. When a Iron substance is dipped in a copper sulphate solution, then iron displaces copper to form iron sulphate. This happens as Iron reacts with less reactive metal copper to displace salt from it.

Reaction for Copper with Iron Sulphate:

• Cu + FeSO₄ → No Reaction

Answer 2

According to the metal reactivity series, copper is placed below iron.
According to the chemistry rules, if a metal has to displace another, it has to be more reactive than the other.

If it would be iron displacing copper from copper sulphate solution then it could be possible.

But,,,,, copper can’t displace iron from iron sulphate.
Chemical reaction is
Cu+feso4———no change
