no reaction will be in such condition.
because dilute H2SO4 doesn't react with copper plate only concentrate acid react with copper.

Copper does not react with dilute sulphuric acid as it's reduction potential is higher than that of hydrogen. Copper does not displace hydrogen from non-oxydizing acids like HCL
or dilute H2S04.
But, concentrated sulphuric acid is an oxidizing agent. So, when copper is heated with concentrated H2SO4, a redox reaction occurs and the acid gets reduced to sulphur dioxide.
Cu + 2H2S04 = CuSO4 + SO2 + 2H20
or dilute H2S04.
