Best Answer

Iron is more reactive than copper in the reactivity series. Hence metallic iron will displace copper cations from the solution. The solution will change colour from blue to brown. Metallic copper may be seen forming/observed on the sides of the reaction vessel/test tude.

yes


What happens when an iron nail is dipped in copper sulphate solution?

A brown layer of copper gets deposited on iron nail. This change is due to a chemical reaction between copper sulphate and iron. Also the colour of the solution changes from blue to green due to the formation of iron sulphate. This reaction can be represented by the following equation: Copper sulphate + Iron = Iron sulphate + Copper solution (CuSO4) + (Fe) = (FeSO) + (Cu)

When zinc rod is dipped in a solution of aqu copper sulphate copper is precipitated out?

This is due to something called a displacment reaction, during a displacment reaction one of the particals from one of the substances "swap" with another partical from the solution In the case of zink and copper sulphate solution, the copper and zink 'switch places to produce copper and a solution of zink sulphate. This is how, A + BC = B +AC

Iron nail dipped in copper sulphate solution?

When an iron nail is dipped in the solution of copper sulphate solution , after a while the solution changes into the colour of green becoming iron sulphate and a brown substance is found on the iron nail which is copper so we get to know that the displacement reaction is produced


How do you distinguish between copper sulphate solution sodium chloride solution sodium nitrate solution or sodium sulphate solution?

copper sulphate solution-blue sodium chloride (salt) solution-clear sodium nitrate solution- white to clear sodium sulphate solution- white copper sulphate solution-blue sodium chloride (salt) solution-clear sodium nitrate solution- white to clear sodium sulphate solution- white
