Consider the following reactions: (i) Fe+CuSO_(4)rarrFeSO_(4)+Cu (ii) Cu+FeSO_(4)rarrCuSO_(4)+Fe Which of these two reactions will take place and why?

Answer»

Solution :REACTION (i) will TAKE place. This is because FE (IRON) is more reactive than Cu (copper) and so it can displace Cu from its COMPOUND `(CuSO_(4))`. On the other hand, copper (Cu) cannot displace iron (Fe), so reaction (ii) will not take place.
