Question

How will you show that iron is more reactive than copper??​

Answer 1

Answer:

To prove that iron is more reactive than copper, the solution of copper sulfate is taken. Some iron nails are added to it. Later, it is observed that a brown coating is formed on the surface of iron and the color of copper sulfate solution has turned to light green from blue. This is due to high reactivity of iron which displaces the copper ions from its solution and forms ferrous sulfate solution...hope it helps u..have. a good day

Answer 2

Explanation:

Reactive metals can displace less  reactive metals from their compounds in  solution or molten form.

Activity:

Take a clean wire of copper and an iron nail.  Put the copper wire in a solution of iron sulphate and the iron nail in a solution of copper sulphate taken in test tubes. Record your observations after 20 minutes.

From this activity, we can conclude that, Iron is more reactive than Copper.
