Question

Iron is more reactive than copper. Write an activity to show this

Answer 1

Reaction


Fe + cuso4 ----> feso4 + cu

Activity

Make cuso4 solution
2. get an iron nail( shouldn't be rusted)
3. Dip the iron nail into cuso4 solution and leave it for some time
4. After since time you will observe a between color layer forming on the iron nail
5. That shows that iron is more reactive than copper....

Answer 2

You see that a reaction takes place and copper is left by itself. Now, we can say that iron has displaced copper from copper sulphate. In such a reaction, the more reactive metaldisplaces the less reactive metal. Thus, the above activity shows that iron is more reactive than copper.
