What will happen if copper metal is added to iron sulfate solution?

nothing will happen as i have done this experiment. I think it is because iron is more reactive than copper, so the copper can't take away the sulphate. but if you added the iron to a copper sulphate solution the product would be iron sulphate this reaction is called displacment.

∙ 11y agoThe iron would replace the copper in the copper sulphate solution, and copper metal would come out of solution, forming on the iron powder. The solution will also turn a light green color as it turns from copper sulfate to iron sulfate. The chemical equation for this single replacement/displacement reaction is Fe(s) + CuSO4(aq) --> Cu(s) + FeSO4(aq) .

Why colour of copper sulphate solution changes to light green when iron filings are added?
When an iron nail is dipped in the copper sulfate solution then iron displaces copper from the copper sulfate because iron is more reactive than copper.
Does the mass of water increase when you add copper sulfate?
The mass of water does not increase when copper sulfate is added to the water, unless the copper sulfate is hydrated. The mass of the mixture of water and copper sulfate, of course, does increase.
Does copper sulfate have a concentration?
A copper sulphate solution can have different concentrations depending on how much copper sulphate crystals have been added into the water. A typical 1 molar solution of copper sulphate would need 250g of CuSO4, mixed with 700ml of H2O, with 10ml of H2SO4 added with another 290ml of water.
What happens when water is added to white copper sulfate?
Its sulphate not sulfate and sorry im not sure my self
What happens when Steel wool is added to a copper sulphate solution?
I think basically what happens is a single replacement (or maybe double?) but copper will be drawn from the copper sulfate and form on the outside of the steel wool. If it's a double replacement then something in the steel wool will replace the copper and you'll have a new sulfate solution. I remember doing this lab in chemistry a number of years back, so sorry that I can't remember all the details. T_T
What happens when ammonia is added to copper sulfate?
When Ammonia solution is added to Copper sulphate, at first a precipitate of Copper hydroxide is formed. If excess ammonia is added, finally a deep bluish solution of Tetraamine Copper(II) Sulfate is formed
What happens when copper sulfate was added to water?
The solution will turn yellow
What happens when copper sulphate is added to water?
Formation of a copper sulfate solution in water. This solution has a herbicide and fungicide effect.
If Clear dilute ammonia is added to blue copper sulfate solution does a chemical reaction happen?
Try it on your own. (Best answer for your problem is your action)
What colour is pure water when anhydrous copper sulphate is added and is there a soild residue?
Anhydrous copper sulfate solid is white. When it is added to water, it dissolves and the solution of aqueous copper sulfate becomes blue.
Why colour of copper sulphate solution changes to light green when iron filings are added?
When an iron nail is dipped in the copper sulfate solution then iron displaces copper from the copper sulfate because iron is more reactive than copper.
What is the pink precipitate formed when iron is added to copper sulfate?
The pink precipitate is finely divided copper, reduced to its metallic form by displacement from copper sulfate by iron, which is higher in the electromotive series than copper. Iron sulfate remains in solution.
When water is added to a blue solution of copper sulfate the solution changes to a lighter shade of blue Is this an example of a chemical reaction?
If the water being added is pure, and the solvent in the copper sulfate solution was water, then no, this should not result in a chemical reaction. The visual change is due to dilution of the solute
When copper sulfate is added to water it .......to form a?
Why does copper sulfate change its colour when water is added
What happens when acetic acid is added in Copper sulfate and sodium carbonate solution?
Try it and find out. ROFL
What is would you expect to see when zinc is added to Copper Sulphate?
there would be a single replacement reaction where the copper forms on the top of the zinc and the blue color of the copper sulfate would get lighter and eventually you would end up with zinc sulfate and copper
What is the reaction when aluminum is added to copper sulfate?
The reaction forms aluminum sulfate and frees copper.
