Fe(s)+CuSO4(aq)_FeSO4(aq)+Cu(s)
Answers
Fe(s) + CuSO₄(aq) → FeSO₄(aq) + Cu(s)
This reaction is also called as displacement reaction (or single displacement reaction).
In this reaction, Fe reacts with the salt solution of Cu(CuSO₄), and as Fe is more reactive that Cu, so Fe displaces Cu from its salt solution.

♣ Displacement reaction is a chemical reaction in which a more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its compound. Both metals and non-metals take part in displacement reactions.
♥ A single displacement reaction which is also called as single replacement reaction is a kind of oxidation-reduction chemical reaction when an ion or element moves out of a compound, i.e., one element is replaced by the other in a compound.
♠ Double displacement reactions occur when a part of two ionic compounds are exchanged and make two new components. Double displacement reactions take place mostly in aqueous solutions wherein the ions precipitate, and exchange of ions takes place.
