Silver is lower in the reactivity series than Zinc and therfore cannot displace the Sulphate from the Zinc. But on the other hand zinc is higher than copper, and when displacing the sulphate from the copper it changes colour due to the reaction.

iron + copper sulphate ''goes to'' iron sulphate + copper
A displacement reaction takes place. Iron being a more reactive element than copper displaces copper from its compound. Ferrous Sulphate which is green in color and copper a reddish brown element are formed. So, blue color of copper sulphate fades away and the solution becomes light green. Copper is deposited on the grayish iron filings.
Because in solution the ions Cu2+ and (SO4)2- are formed. In copper (metal) electrons can move free.
Take a cupful of water in a beaker and add few drops of dilute sulphuric acid. Heat water. When it starts boiling add copper sulphate powder slowly while stirring continuously. Continue adding copper sulphate powder till no more powder can be dissolved. Filter the solution. Allow it to cool. Do not disturb the solution after some time. We can see the crystals of copper sulphate. If we do not see any crystals, wait for some more time. Your copper sulphate crystal is ready. By: darani.a
zinc is more reactive than copper hence it displaces the copper in copper sulphate solution to become zinc sulphate and copper metal is formed
When Ammonia solution is added to Copper sulphate, at first a precipitate of Copper hydroxide is formed. If excess ammonia is added, finally a deep bluish solution of Tetraamine Copper(II) Sulfate is formed
Solid copper sulfate does not conduct electricity because the ions are not free to move and carry an electric charge. However, when copper sulfate is dissolved in water, it dissociates into copper ions and sulfate ions, both of which are free to move and conduct electricity. This movement of charged particles allows for the flow of electric current through the solution.
When powdered zinc is added to a mixture of copper sulfate, a redox reaction occurs where zinc displaces copper from the solution. This leads to the formation of solid copper and zinc sulfate solution. The color change from blue to colorless indicates the completion of the reaction.
A precipitate is formed which has a light blue colour. After shaking, the precipitate re-dissolves forming a dark blue solution.
Copper sulphate CuSO4
Copper(II)sulphate and hydrogen.
Fe = CuSO4 ----> FeSO4 + Cu

When hydrogen sulfide and copper sulfate are mixed together, they react to form solid copper sulfide and sulfuric acid. This reaction can be represented by the equation: H2S + CuSO4 → CuS + H2SO4.
Copper sulfate solution cannot be evaporated to separate copper sulfate crystals because copper sulfate easily decomposes upon heating, forming copper oxide and toxic sulfur dioxide gas. The best way to separate copper sulfate crystals from solution is through the process of crystallization by cooling the solution slowly to allow the crystals to form.
