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.

magnesium sulfate
Mix magnesium powder with copper sulphate. The more reactive magnesium will displace the less reactive copper.
No, zinc will displace copper from copper sulphate but not the other way around.
magnesium+copper sulphate =no reaction
The Zinc will displace the copper. It will become Zinc Sulphate. The word equation will be Zinc + Copper Sulphate -----> Copper + Zinc Sulphate. Hope this helps!
More reactive than copper.
Mix magnesium powder with copper sulphate. The more reactive magnesium will displace the less reactive copper.
Magnesium is more reactive than copper, so it will displace (swap places) with the copper forming magnesium sulphate and copper.
No, zinc will displace copper from copper sulphate but not the other way around.
it will form magnesium sulphate + copper
No, but magnesium ribbon will react with copper sulphate
It makes magnesium sulphate, and copper.
magnesium+copper sulphate =no reaction
magnesium+copper
With science!
The Zinc will displace the copper. It will become Zinc Sulphate. The word equation will be Zinc + Copper Sulphate -----> Copper + Zinc Sulphate. Hope this helps!
Since magnesium is a more reactive metal, it will displace the copper and the anion (Which basically is the sulphate) goes to the magnesium. So the products you get out of the displacement is Magnesium sulphate, and copper alone. I have tried this experiment before and just to tell you one thing... During the reaction, a smell comes up, so cover your nose! :D You don't want to smell it.
It makes Magnesium Sulphate
