it is because zinc is more reactive than copper. thus it can replace copper from its compound. displacement reaction is the reaction in which the more reactive element replaces the less reactive element from its compound. hence zinc is replacing copper from its compound. Obviously it is a displacement reaction.
No, copper is less reactive than zinc. The sulphate ion stays attached to the zinc.
Hi there, I am not very sure what the coating is called but i think it is iron oxide. lolxx
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!
No, zinc will displace copper from copper sulphate but not the other way around.
zinc is more reactive than copper hence it displaces the copper in copper sulphate solution to become zinc sulphate and copper metal is formed

This is called a reduction / oxidation reaction:Reduction of Cu2+ to Cu , done by electron donation from Zn which is then oxidized to Zn2+.Sulfate ions (SO42-) do not take part in this, they're called: tribuned ions.
This reaction is not possible.

Adding zinc to copper sulfate will result in a displacement reaction that will create copper metal to precipitate as a solid. CuSO4(aq) + Zn(s) ---> ZnSO4 + Cu(s) This reaction is quite exothermic too, meaning it will give off alot of heat - enough to make it too hot to hold the reaction beaker in bare hands.
Zinc is more reactive than copper, so it'll displace the copper & form zinc sulphate, taking the place of the copper: Copper sulphate + Zinc --> Zinc sulphate + Copper CuS04 + Zn --> ZnSO4 + Cu

Is aqueous copper (2)sulphate an effective catalyst in the reaction between zinc and hydrochloric acid.

this reaction would be a single displacement reaction where Zn+2 ions would displace the the copper ions due to its slightly higher electronegativity. The overall stoichiometry would be: Zn+2 + CuSO4 --> ZnSO4 + Cu+2
