This is a single replacement reaction. The zinc replaces the copper in the sulfate compound.

In general, if a reaction occurs between a metal and metal-nonmetal (ionic) compound, the two metals will "switch."

Zn+H2SO4 -----> ZnSO4+H2 is a single displacement reaction. This means that the Zn is more reactive than the H2.
