Question

to study displacement reaction using aqueous solutions of copper sulphate and iron​

Answer 1

Answer:

Iron displaces copper ions from an aqueous solution of copper sulphate. It is a singledisplacement reaction of one metal by another metal. ... In this reaction, metallic iron is converted into ferrous ion (Fe2+) and cupric ion (Cu2 +) is converted into metallic copper. Fe (s) + Cu2 + (aq) —→ Fe2+ (aq) + Cu (s).

Answer 2

CuSO4 + Zn ------> ZnSO4 + Cu

In the above reaction, Zinc (Zn) displaces copper from Copper sulphate to form Zinc sulphate and element copper.

This is an example of displacement reaction.

In simple words, when the ions of the elements of a less reactive element in a compound is taken by a more reactive compound my formation of its own ions is called displacement reaction.
