What happens when copper metal is put in zinc nitrate solution?
Wiki User
∙ 12y ago
due to the transfer of electron the zinc nitrate forms to zinc, and copper is formed to copper nitrate.
this is usually followed by half equations which are:
Cu -> Cu ^2+ + 2e
zn^2+ + 2e -> zn
where e is electrons and 2+ is representative of the nitrate

What substance is formed on a copper metal surface while in a silver nitrate solution?
Copper Nitrate
What type of solution is copper nitrate?
first of all which are we talking? Copper (I) Nitrate or Copper (II) Nitrate 2nd, It is an Ionic Solution that will react with any metal except mercury, silver, platinum, and gold.
NAME OF A metal that replaces silver from silver nitrate solution?
copper will replace silver in silver nitratesolution will precipitate silver and oxidize copper turning to copper nitrate
What is the colour of copper metal after being placed in silver nitrate solution?
Silver shine
What are the reactions of copper and zinc metal using concentrated nitric acid concentrated sulfuric acid potassium chloride solution and zinc powder metal?
copper+nitric acid > copper nitrate+hydrogen copper+sulpuric acid> copper sulphate+ hydrogen copper+potassium chloride> copper chloride+ hydrogen copper+ zinc carbonate (powder metal) > copper+ zinc + water + carbon dioxide zinc+nitric acid > zinc nitrate+ hydrogen etc just replace the copper in the above equations with 'zinc' for all the zinc solutions x

What is the observation of copper (s) plus silver nitrate?
Cu(s) + 2AgNO3(aq) --> 2Ag(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq)According to the metal activity series, copper is more reactive than silver, so the copper will replace the silver in the silver nitrate compound.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactivity_seriesThe silver metal will precipitate out of solution, forming along the piece of copper, which goes into solution, combining with the aqueous nitrate ion. If this reaction goes to completion, all of the copper will go into solution as copper(II) nitrate, and all of the silver metal will precipitate out of solution.
What happens if you put copper metal into a solution of aluminum sulfate?
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.
How do you balance the equation silver nitrate plus copper metal equals silver metal plus copper nitrate?
If the copper nitrate formed is copper (I) nitrate, the equation balances with one atom of each metal and one formula weight of each nitrate. If the copper nitrate formed is copper (II) nitrate, the balanced equation is: 2 AgNO3 + Cu -> 2 Ag + Cu(NO3)2.
What happens when copper reacts with Silver Nitrate?
The copper will replace the silver in the silver nitrate solution, and silver metal will come out of the solution. This is called a single replacement reaction. The following equation represents the reaction. 2AgNO3 + Cu ---> Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag
What is the balanced formula for cooper metal plus silver nitrate solution yield silver plus copper II nitrate solution?
The reaction is:Cu + 2 AgNO3 = Cu(NO3)2 + 2 Ag
What substance is formed on the surface of copper metal when it is placed in a solution of silver nitrate?
Cu + 2AgNO3 ---> Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag Silver breaks its bond with nitrate and Metallic Copper bonds to the nitrate with Silver changing into its metallic state or 0 charge state.
What is the result of copper nitrate on copper metal when it is left open for sometime?
No
What are the colors of silver metal and copper nitrate in water?
The colour of silver metal in water is whiteThe colour of copper nitrate in water is blue (due to the Cu++ ion).
