उत्तर

When an iron nail is placed in copper sulphate solution, then iron sulphate solution and copper metal are formed.

\[\ce{\underset{(Blue solution)}{\underset{Copper sulphate}{CuSO4_{(aq)}}} + \underset{(Grey)}{\underset{Iron}{Fe_{(s)}}} -> \underset{(Greenish solution)}{\underset{Iron sulphate}{FeSO4_{(aq)}}} + \underset{(Red-brown)}{\underset{Copper}{Cu_{(s)}}}}\]

In this process, iron displaces copper from a copper sulphate solution. The deep blue hue of copper sulphate solution diminishes as it transforms into a light green solution of iron sulphate. A red-brown layer of copper metal is deposited on the surface of iron metal. This displacement reaction occurs because iron is more reactive than copper.
