Question

The reaction of iron nail with copper sulphate solution is_______reaction.

Answer 1

The reaction that takes place is displacement reaction

Fe + CuSo4 gives FeSo4 + Cu

Answer 2

Answer:

The reaction of iron nail with copper sulphate solution is a displacement reaction.

Explanation:

Since the iron is more reactive than copper (from reactivity series), it can displace copper from its compounds/salts such as copper sulphate solution here.

Hence, the displacement reaction takes place and blue colour of copper sulphate is changed to light green colour of iron sulphate.

The reaction is given below :->

Fe + CuSO4(aqueous) --> FeSO4 + Cu
