zinc is more reactive than copper hence it displaces the copper in copper sulphate solution to become zinc sulphate

and copper metal is formed

Is it possible to store CuSO4 solution in Zn container?

No, it is not. Since zinc is highly reactive, therefore it will react with copper sulphate to form zinc sulphate and deposit copper.


What two things happen when zinc is added to copper sulphate?

The Zinc will displace the copper. It will become Zinc Sulphate. The word equation will be Zinc + Copper Sulphate -----> Copper + Zinc Sulphate. Hope this helps!


Does copper displace zinc from zinc sulphate?

No, zinc will displace copper from copper sulphate but not the other way around.


Why zinc sulphate and copper have displacement reaction?

No, copper is less reactive than zinc. The sulphate ion stays attached to the zinc.


Zinc plus Copper sulphate?

zinc hydrogenate + copper = zinc + copper sulphate

Does zinc react with copper sulphate?

yes cos there is loads of pikachus present

What two substances react together to make zinc sulphate?

Zinc oxide and sulphuric acid


Is it advisable to store ferrous sulphate in a zinc container?

No. The zinc will react with the ferrous sulphate, dissolving the zinc and forming solid iron. This is due to the positions of iron and zinc in the activity series.See the Related Questions for more information about the activity series.


What is the equation for copper sulphate and zinc?

Zinc is more reactive than copper, so it'll displace the copper & form zinc sulphate, taking the place of the copper: Copper sulphate + Zinc --> Zinc sulphate + Copper CuS04 + Zn --> ZnSO4 + Cu


Why zinc sulphate and copper have displacement reaction?

No, copper is less reactive than zinc. The sulphate ion stays attached to the zinc.


Zinc plus Copper sulphate?

zinc hydrogenate + copper = zinc + copper sulphate


What is more reactive zinc or copper sulphate?

zinc


Why copper rods not used to separate zinc from zinc sulphate?

Copper rods cannot separate zinc from zinc sulphate because copper is less reactive than zinc, and cannot separate the zinc which is more reactive than copper. If you get copper sulphate and add some zinc to it, you will see solid copper appearing on the bottom of the test tube... The copper cannot push out the zinc from the solution and take its place.


What does Zinc Sulphate and Lithium look like after the reaction of them together?

When zinc sulphate and lithium react together, they form lithium sulphate and zinc as products. Zinc is a grayish-white metal, while lithium sulphate is a white solid. Therefore, after the reaction, you would observe a greyish-white solid and a white solid.
