Zn + MgSO4 ------> ZnSO4 + Mg This reaction will not take place.
Why the chemical reaction between zinc and magnesium is not possible?
- In chemistry, the list of reactivity series shows that all the elements are arranged in their decreasing order of reactivity.
- In the reactivity series, zinc is placed after the magnesium, and therefore we can say that zinc is less reactive than magnesium.
- Ads magnesium is more reactive and hence it will be difficult for the zinc to displace magnesium from the above reaction.
- Thus, zinc cannot displace magnesium from magnesium sulfate and the reaction is not possible.
So, the correct option is C.
