Copper Sulphate Solution (CuSO4) is blue in colour. When iron nail is placed in it, we can observe the following:
1) reddish brown deposits on iron (these are of Copper)
2) colour of the solution turns from blue to light green.
The formula for this reaction is: Fe + CuSO4 --> FeSO4 + Cu
Here, Fe is more reactive than Cu. So Fe displaces Cu to form Iron Sulfate and Copper.
Hope it help you…

The colour of the copper sulphate is blue.
When iron nails are placed in the copper sulphate solution the colour of the solution changes into green colour.
Fe+CuSO4 ------> FeSO4 + Cu
