This is a simple displacement reaction - the more reactive magnesium displaces the less reactive copper from a solution of its salt. ....
magnesium + copper sulphate ---> copper + magnesium sulphate
Mg + CuSO4 ----> MgSO4 + Cu
the blue colour of the copper sulphate will disappear and the silver coloured magnesium will be replaced by brown-red copper metal.
Hope this helps.

No, zinc will displace copper from copper sulphate but not the other way around.
magnesium+copper sulphate =no reaction
To prepare magnesium sulfate in the lab, you would typically dissolve magnesium oxide or magnesium carbonate in dilute sulfuric acid. The reaction between the magnesium compound and the sulfuric acid will form magnesium sulfate and water. The solution can then be concentrated and crystallized to obtain solid magnesium sulfate.
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!
Iron does not displace sodium from a salt solution because it is not reactive enough. Iron does, however, displace Cu from a copper sulphate solution.
No, zinc will displace copper from copper sulphate but not the other way around.
it will form magnesium sulphate + copper
It makes magnesium sulphate, and copper.
magnesium+copper sulphate =no reaction
When magnesium metal is added to a solution of copper sulfate, a displacement reaction occurs where magnesium replaces copper in the compound. This is because magnesium is more reactive than copper. As a result, magnesium sulfate is formed, while solid copper is deposited as a residue.
Magnesium is more reactive than copper in the reactivity series (reactive metal atoms displaces less reactive metal ions from its salts).therefore : Mg displaces CU from its salt forming MgSO4 (Magnesium Sulphate)

No, but magnesium ribbon will react with copper sulphate
Since magnesium is a more reactive metal, it will displace the copper and the anion (Which basically is the sulphate) goes to the magnesium. So the products you get out of the displacement is Magnesium sulphate, and copper alone. I have tried this experiment before and just to tell you one thing... During the reaction, a smell comes up, so cover your nose! :D You don't want to smell it.
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!
Copper can be released from a copper sulfate solution by electrolysis or by adding a more reactive metal, such as iron or magnesium, which will displace the copper in a single replacement reaction. Another method is to heat the solution to evaporate the water, leaving behind solid copper sulfate which can then be reduced to obtain copper metal.
Magnesium + Copper(II) sulfate -> Magnesium sulfate + Copper This balanced equation represents the displacement reaction between magnesium and copper sulfate, where magnesium replaces copper in the compound to form magnesium sulfate while copper is displaced.
