Cu2+ ions are reduced to Cu metal which is deposited on the Zn metal surface, while the Zn metal is oxidized to Zn 2+ ions which go into the solution. The redox equation for this reaction is therefore equation
Cu + Zn 2+ → Cu 2++ Zn Cu2+ Is Reduced And Zn2+ Is Oxidized. ... Cu Is Reduced And Zn Is Oxidized
