What metal can displace iron from iron chloride Zinc or iron or Copper?

Zinc can displace iron from iron chloride. This is because zinc is higher in the reactivity series than iron. Copper, however, cannot displace iron from iron chloride as it is lower in the reactivity series than iron.


Why cant copper displace iron from iron sulphate solution?

Copper is lower in the reactivity series than iron. This means copper is less reactive than iron, so it is unable to displace iron from iron sulfate solution through a displacement reaction. Only metals higher in the reactivity series can displace metals that are lower.


Where is carbon placed in the reactivity series and why?

Carbon comes below aluminum and above zinc in the reactivity series: Potassium Sodium Lithium Calcium Magnesium Aluminium CARBON Zinc Iron Tin Lead Copper Silver Gold Platinum


Why is copper sulphate and iron a displacement reaction?

Copper is higher in the reactivity series than iron, so when copper sulfate solution is added to iron, the copper ions in the solution will displace the iron from the iron metal, forming copper metal and iron sulfate. This reaction occurs because metals higher in the reactivity series are more willing to give up electrons and undergo oxidation.


What is the reactivity number for iron?

The electronegativity (a measure of reactivity) of iron in the Pauling system is 1,83.


Does zinc react faster than iron?

Zinc typically reacts faster than iron in many chemical reactions due to its higher reactivity and position in the reactivity series. Zinc readily loses electrons to form positive ions, while iron tends to react more slowly due to its lower reactivity.


How high is the reactivity of iron?

The reactivity of iron is quite high, as it reacts by coming into contact with moisture in the air.


Iron sulphate will not react with copper why?

because copper is below iron in electrochemical series that's why it doesnt react with iron sulphate.


Does zinc react with iron sulphate?

Yes, zinc does react with iron sulfate through a single displacement reaction. The more reactive metal, zinc, will displace the less reactive metal, iron, from its compound, iron sulfate, forming zinc sulfate and iron metal. This type of reaction is a common example of the reactivity series in chemistry.


How is reactivity series useful?

Well i need to know m8, so if you could tell me please do. Thanks a bunch


Where in the reactivity series are the metals most affected by corrosion?

The rate of corrosion is directly linked to a metal's reactivity. The higher the metal in the series, the more reactive, also more susceptible to corrosion with oxygen and water. aluminum is not easy to corrode. Aluminum quickly reacts with oxygen in the air, and the oxide layer that forms protects the metal underneath from any further reaction.


Metal in the middle of the reactive series-or in a jumble?

I'm guessing that you've got the same science homework as me. It's Iron (or in jumble). Also, I checked on the reactivity series to find out which ones were in the middle, which are Zinc and Iron.
