Hola amigo!!
Rajdeep here....
Your answer is NO!!!
Why?
According to the metal reactivity series,
Copper is below iron, so iron is much more reactive than copper. So iron can displace copper from copper salt solution.
CuSO4 + Fe -----> FeSO4 + Cu
Thus, from bluish copper sulphate solution, you get greenish iron sulphate solution.
Thus you cannot store CuSO4 solution in an iron container.
Thanks!!
