What are the common zinc alloys?

Common zinc alloys include brass (copper and zinc), nickel silver (copper, nickel, and zinc), Zamak (zinc, aluminum, magnesium, and copper), and ZA (zinc and aluminum). These alloys are used in a variety of applications due to their strength, corrosion resistance, and low melting point.

What is more reactive zinc or copper sulphate?

Zinc is more reactive than copper sulfate. When zinc is placed in a solution of copper sulfate, a displacement reaction occurs where zinc displaces copper from the solution, forming zinc sulfate and copper metal.


Does copper displace zinc from zinc sulphate?

No, zinc will displace copper from copper sulphate but not the other way around.


Does zinc usually combine with copper?

Alloys of zinc and copper are well known. There are no chemical compounds of zinc and copper.


What two things happen when zinc is added to copper sulphate?

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!


What two metals compose the alloy brass?

What happens when zinc is dipped in a copper sulfate solution Zinc is higher on the activity series than copper.?

When zinc is dipped in a copper sulfate solution, zinc will undergo a single displacement reaction where it will replace copper in the solution to form zinc sulfate and copper. This is because zinc is higher on the activity series than copper, so it is able to displace copper in the solution.


What is mixed with copper to make brass?

Brass is mainly an alloy of copper and zinc. Some alloys do have small amounts of arsenic added also.

What it the alloy of copper an zinc?

Alloys that contain only copper and zinc are usually called "brass"; there are also some alloys that contain one or more other metals in addition to copper and zinc, and these usually have another name.


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.
