Question

Which metal from the following can displace zinc from zinc sulphate solutions , a) lead b) magnesium c) silver . write the equation of the chemical reaction involved

Answer 1

Hey there!!!!
Magnesium Will displace the Zinc from Zinc Sulphate solution as it is a more reactive Metal.

Chemical Reaction -----
ZnSO4 + Mg --- MgSO4 + Zn

Hope it helps...............
and Don't forget to mark my answer as brainliest

Answer 2

Magnesium is the metal from the above mentioned question which can displace Zinc from Zinc sulphate solution. Magnesium lies above Zinc in the reactivity series and hence Magnesium is more reactive than Zinc. As we know that, a more reactive metal can displace a less reactive metal from its salt solution. Therefore, Magnesium can displace Zinc form its salt solution i.e.   Zinc sulphate.

ZnSo₄+ Mg → MgSo₄+Zn
