Copper, silver, and gold are three safe examples.
Copper is a metal that cannot replace zinc from zinc sulfate solution. This is because copper has a lower reactivity than zinc and cannot displace it in a chemical reaction.
Sounds like copper (II) sulfate (ie cupric sulfate or CuSO4)
Examples of homogeneous mixtures include salt solution, sugar solution, copper II sulfate solution, and metal mixtures called alloys.
Any metal which is more reactive than Aluminium, for example any metal in group 1 or 2.
Since iron (Fe) is more reactive than copper (Cu) it will be 'plated' with copper when the metal iron is stuck in copper sulfate solution. Fe(s) + Cu2+(aq) + [SO42-]aq ---> Fe2+(aq) + Cu(s) + [SO42-]aq
This is an example of displacement of one element from compounds of that element by reaction of the compound with a different element that is higher in the electromotive series than the element displaced from its compound. The element higher in the electromotive series is converted to its ions, which replace the ions of the element lower in the electromotive series in the original compound, while the ions of the element lower in the electromotive series are converted to free atoms.
Nothing will happen. Displacement reaction only happens when the element is more reactive than the salt solution. An example will be the otherwise. If you put aluminum metal into a solution of Copper (II) Sulfate. The aluminum metal will displace copper metal and you will have a solution of Aluminum Sulfate and copper metal. As long the element you put into the salt solution is more reactive than the cation of the solution, it will displace the metal.
Copper can be obtained from copper sulfate solution by electroplating it onto an electrode or by adding a metal higher in the electromotive series than copper, such as iron, to the solution. The more active metal will dissolve by displacing copper in metallic form from the copper sulfate.
They do not react.
Yes. The magnesium metal replaces the copper in the copper sulfate. This is a single replacement or single displacement reaction.
The "excess" metallic copper produced by adding zinc metal to a copper sulfate solution comes from exchanging zinc atoms from the metal for copper atoms from the copper sulfate solution. During the reaction, the zinc atoms are ionized to cations and the copper cations from the solution are reduced to neutral atoms.

The iron which is a more electrochemically active metal gets plated with copper and iron sulfate is formed
Because iron is a more reactive metal than copper.
Examples of homogeneous mixtures include salt solution, sugar solution, copper II sulfate solution, and metal mixtures called alloys.
Colorless. The resulting solution is zinc sulfate, and Zn2+ ions are colorless.
If an aqueous solution of copper(II) sulfate is contacted with metallic iron, at the least the surface of the iron passes into solution and is replaced by a layer of metallic copper. This is an example of displacement by a metal higher in the electromotive series than the metal it displaces.
Copper sulfate is not a metal There are two compounds called Copper Sulfate, which are salts of the metal Copper. CuSO4 is Copper (II) Sulfate, once known as Cupric Sulfate. Cu2SO4 is Copper (I) Sulfate, once known as Cuprous Sulfate.
