What happens when a zinc strip is dipped into a copper sulphate solution?
(a) Write the equation for the reaction that takes place.
(b) Name the type of reaction involved.

When a strip of zinc metal is immersed in copper sulphate solution, zinc sulphate solution and copper are obtained.

(a) The chemical equation for the reaction mentioned above is as follows:-

CuSO4(aq.) +Zn(s)→  ZnSO4(aq.) +Cu(s)

(a) In a displacement reaction, zinc metal displaces as zinc sulphate while copper sulphate displaces as copper.
