Best Answer

The equation for the reaction is Fe + Cu+2 -> Fe+2 + Cu, and the reaction is usually called a "single displacement" reaction, because the metal element higher in the electromotive series, iron in this instance, displaces the elemental form of the metal lower in the electromotive series from compounds of the latter metal, the former metal being ionized itself. (Sulfate anions have only a "spectator" role in this reaction.)
