Which colour of copper sulphate solution change when iron dipped in it?

It may seem like the iron rusts, but it doesn't. The chemical formula for copper sulfate is CuSO4, or, 1 copper atom, 1 sulfur atom, and 4 oxygen atoms to each molecule. When the iron is placed in the solution of copper sulfate, it replaces the copper in the solution, turning copper sulfate into iron sulfate (FeSO4) and pure copper collects on the iron. This can be proved by removing the copper and seeing that the iron has lost a lot of its mass, as in, it lost mass to the copper sulfate.
The iron (steel wool) takes on a pinkish color which is metallic copper deposited when the solution forms iron sulfate.

∙ 13y agoThere will be no reaction, because copper is not reactive enough to displace iron from the compound.

What is the colour of the solution if zinc is added to copper sulphate solution?
No colour
Why aqueous copper sulphate solution conduct electricity but solid copper sulphate does not?
aqueous copper sulphate having high conductive hydroxide ions were as no in solid Copper sulphate.
Why is colour of copper sulphate blue?
The colour of Copper sulphate is blue because Copper ions absorb light in all frequencies except blue which is reflected instead.
What would be seen coating the zinc strips in the reaction zinc and iron sulphate?
Hi there, I am not very sure what the coating is called but i think it is iron oxide. lolxx
Why does magnesium displace copper from copper sulphate?
This is a simple displacement reaction - the more reactive magnesium displaces the less reactive copper from a solution of its salt. .... magnesium + copper sulphate ---> copper + magnesium sulphate Mg + CuSO4 ----> MgSO4 + Cu the blue colour of the copper sulphate will disappear and the silver coloured magnesium will be replaced by brown-red copper metal. Hope this helps. :)
What is the colour of the solution if zinc is added to copper sulphate solution?
No colour
What color is copper sulphate solution and water mixture?
Copper sulphate's colour is blue.
The blue colour of the solution fades during the electrolysis of copper sulfate. Explain why.?
Why does the colour of copper sulphate solution change when an iron nail is dipped in it? When an iron nail is placed in a copper sulphate solution, iron displaces copper from copper sulphate solution forming iron sulphate, which is green in colour. Therefore, the blue colour of copper sulphate solution fades and green colour appears.
When an iron nail is dipped into copper sulphate solution after sometime the colour is changed into?
When a iron nail is dipped into copper sulphate solution after sometime the colour is changed into pale green.
Why does the color of copper sulphate change when an iron nail dipped in it?
When an iron nail is placed in a copper sulphate solution, iron displaces copper from copper sulphate solution forming iron sulphate, which is green in colour.Therefore, the blue colour of copper sulphate solution fades and green colour appears.
What happens when an iron nail is dipped in copper sulphate solution?
A brown layer of copper gets deposited on iron nail. This change is due to a chemical reaction between copper sulphate and iron. Also the colour of the solution changes from blue to green due to the formation of iron sulphate. This reaction can be represented by the following equation: Copper sulphate + Iron = Iron sulphate + Copper solution (CuSO4) + (Fe) = (FeSO) + (Cu)
Why do you use copper sulphate?
A rather incomplete question. I could use copper sulphate for a number of reasons, for example as an electrolyte for copper plating, as a medium for growing impressive deep blue crystals, as a fungicide and so on. For fun, try dropping some iron filings into a fairly concentrated solution of copper sulphate and observe how the iron filings change to a copper colour and the solution changes to a green colour.
Why is there no colour change when a silver rod is put in blue copper sulphate solution?
Silver is less reactive than copper and so cannot displace it from a compound.
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
Why does the blue colour of copper sulphate disappear when a zinc plate is dipped into it?
The copper plates out while the zinc dissolves, leaving a transparent zinc sulphate solution.
Will a displacement reaction occur between copper and green sulphate solution?
What is the metal cation that gives the 'green' colour.
Why does the water colour change to blue when copper sulphate was added?
Anhydrous copper(II) sulphate is white. When added to water, it forms a solution of CuSO4(aq) which is blue because of the Cu2+ ion, which is itself a transition metal ion.
