Question

Copper sulphate and zinc displacement reaction calculation

Answer 1

CuSO₄ + Zn ---------------> ZnSO₄ + Cu

Answer 2

The copper sulfate and zinc displacement reaction is-

$CuSO_4+Zn\rightarrow ZnSO_4+Cu$

• Zn or Zinc is a more reactive metal than Cu. So, it can easily displace Cu from Copper sulfate and form zinc sulfate along with Cu metal.
• The balanced reaction is as follows-
• $CuSO_4+Zn\rightarrow ZnSO_4+Cu$
• In this reaction, one mole of copper sulfate reacts with one mole of zinc to produce one mole of zinc sulfate along with one mole of Cu.
