Best Answer

You create magnesium sulfate and zinc through single discplacement/replacement.

Zinc sulfate(aq) + Magnesium (s)->Magnesium sulfate + Zinc (s)

ZnSO

4(aq)

+ Mg (s) -> MgSO

4 + Zn(s)



Hope it helps ;)

The magnesium metal reduces the zinc ions in zinc sulphate to metallic zinc and replaces them with magnesium ions, because magnesium is higher in the electromotive series than zinc. This is an example of the single displacement type of oxidation-reduction reactions.

If we add magnesium to a solution of zinc sulphate then magnesium will displace zinc from zinc sulphate solution as being more reactive.

When you add 5 drops of magnesium chloride to a strip of zinc metal what happens?

Absolutely nothing: The magnesium is more reactive than zinc and hence it keeps hold of its chloride ion. If you were to add magnesium to some zinc chloride then there would be a reaction and you would end up with magnesium chloride and some zinc

What is made when you add zinc to sulfric acid?

Zn + H2SO4 --> ZnSO4 + H2 Zinc sulphate and hydrogen gas are produced.


Why copper rods not used to separate zinc from zinc sulphate?

Copper rods cannot separate zinc from zinc sulphate because copper is less reactive than zinc, and cannot separate the zinc which is more reactive than copper. If you get copper sulphate and add some zinc to it, you will see solid copper appearing on the bottom of the test tube... The copper cannot push out the zinc from the solution and take its place.


What happens if you add magnesium to sodium hydrogen-sulphate?

I think a layer of sodium will layer on it and hydrogen bubbbles will be realeased Not too sure so you might wanna check


What happens if you add zinc to copper sulfate And what happens if you add gold to copper sulfate?

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.


What acid makes magnesium sulphate?

Magnesium sulfate may be derived from sulfuric acid.


If i mix Magnesium oxide and sulphuric acid?

You can react sulphuric acid with magnesium oxide.The reaction will look a little like this. sulphuric acid + magnesium oxide -> magnesium sulphate + water. However the salt dissolves into the liquid so u get a solution, a nd if u add universal indicator it will turn darkish blue for it is a alkaline.


What happens when you add acid to magnesium?

The magnesium will react with the acid to produce hydrogen gas and a magnesium salt.
