No, gold is less reactive than copper.
It isn't displaced as gold is less reactive than copper sulphate!
Only Zinc
At STP, there will be no reaction. Gold is much less active than copper so there will be negligible gold sulfate formed by substitution. Gold is the lowest metal in the electrochemical series, so it will not react chemically with salts of any other metal.
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.
No. hydrogen will eliminate only copper, or gold in the oxidized state, and when dissolved. On 2nd thought, yes. Bring copper and gold into the oxidized, dissolved states, using aquq regia, a solution of 3 parts HCl with 1 part HNO3. Replace spare HNO3 with HCl, using 3 circles of HCl addition and vaporizing. Bubbling hydrogen at this point will free gold and leave copper dissolved
Copper is a metal that cannot replace zinc from zinc sulfate solution. This is because copper has a lower reactivity than zinc and cannot displace it in a chemical reaction.

Any reaction occur when gold is put in copper sulfate.

18 karat gold is a mixture.It is 75% gold and 25% (usually) copper
to replace copper with gold
copper,gold, iron
Copper into gold, means putting copper powder in gold salt solution. Because copper is closer to hydrogen then gold, in the electromotive scale, it will dissolve, freeing the gold
Better to plate it in gold salt solution
