Question

Zinc + copper sulphate + zinc sulphate + CU is an example of a ____ reaction

Answer 1

Answer:

on adding zinc to CuSO4 solution, zinc displaces copper from copper sulphate & forms zinc sulphate solution because zinc is more reactive metal which displaces less reactive metal from its solution.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Zinc + copper sulphate + zinc sulphate + CU is an example of a displacement reaction

Displacement Reaction :-

It involves displacement of one constituents of a compound by another substance and may be regarded as a displacement reaction.

For example :-

Zn. + CuSO4 ===> ZnSO4 + Cu

Here in the above reaction,

Zinc (Zn) is more reactive than copper (Cu) so it displace it.
