What will happen if you place a cupric sulfate in a test tube and add an iron nail on it?

Copper will "plate" on to the outside of the nail. The observer will see a copper colored material on the nail that looks almost like rust when dry.
Fe + CuSO4 → FeSO4 + Cu
Copper precipitates onto the nail.

What will happen if you put an iron nail in a copper sulfate solution?
The iron will react with the copper sulfate, producing iron sulfate and elemental copper.
What happen when copper sulphate is stored in iron vessel?
Since iron is a more active metal than copper, the iron would replace the copper in the copper sulfate, forming iron sulfate, and releasing elemental copper. The copper will not shape itself into a copper vessel, so eventually, the iron sulfate would leak out of the iron vessel, and eventually, if there is enough copper sulfate, the iron vessel will cease to exist.
What is the reaction when iron sulfate is poured into water?
Iron sulfate dissolves in water to make an aqueous solution of iron sulfate.
What is the formula for iron(II) sulfate?
The formula for Iron(II) sulfate is FeSO4.
Does ferrous sulfate have sulfur?
Yes, ferrous sulfate or iron II sulfate, FeSO4, is a compound of iron, sulfur, and oxygen.
What will happen if you drop a clean iron nail into a 3 ml of cupric sulfate solution in a test tube?
Copper is displaced by iron and deposited on the nail.
What is the chemical equation of cupric sulfate and iron?
This reaction is: Fe(s) + CuSO4(aq)----- --> FeSO4(aq) + Cu(s)

What is chemical name for FeSO4?
Iron (II) sulfate is the correct name for this compound. The Fe ion has a charge of 2 and so does the sulfate ion, so there is no subscript after them.
What is the reaction when iron sulfate is poured into water?
Iron sulfate dissolves in water to make an aqueous solution of iron sulfate.
What does feSO4 stand for?
Iron(II) sulfate. Or the older formula name, Ferrous sulfate.
What is the formula for iron(II) sulfate?
The formula for Iron(II) sulfate is FeSO4.
The chemical formula for iron sulphate?
There are two kinds of iron sulfate: iron (II) sulfate has the formula FeSO4 and iron (III) sulfate has the formula Fe2(SO4)3.
Does ferrous sulfate have sulfur?
Yes, ferrous sulfate or iron II sulfate, FeSO4, is a compound of iron, sulfur, and oxygen.
Is the iron in the thermometer?
iron sulfate
What happens when iron pieces added in zinc sulphate solution?
Actually, nothing will happen. This is because iron is much less reactive than zinc, which means it is unable to displace the zinc from the sulfate solution. If you were to do the reverse, the zinc would displace the iron in the iron sulfate solution to get zinc sulfate and Iron.
