Iron nail dipped in copper sulphate solution?

When an iron nail is dipped in the solution of copper sulphate solution , after a while the solution changes into the colour of green becoming iron sulphate and a brown substance is found on the iron nail which is copper so we get to know that the displacement reaction is produced

Would zinc and iron nitrate react?

No, there would be no reaction present. This is because the particles are more reactive in the zinc then they are in the iron, thus creating no displacement reaction to occur between the metals.

Yes. Zinc will likely replace iron because it is more reactive.


Why is iron pot found to hole after keeping a solution of copper sulphate in it for some days?

Iron is a more active metal than copper, so it replaces/displaces the copper in the copper sulfate, forming iron sulfate and copper. So the hole in the iron pot is where the iron atoms came from. This is called a single replacement/displacement reaction.
