\[\ce{CuSO4_{(aq)} + Fe_{(s)} -> FeSO4_{(aq)} + Cu_{(s)}}\]
\[\ce{FeSO4_{(aq)} + Zn_{(s)} -> ZnSO4_{(aq)} + Fe_{(s)}}\]

उत्तर
In the first reaction, Fe displaces Cu from CuSO4 solution. So Fe is more reactive than Cu. In the second reaction, Zn displaces Fe from FeSO4 solution. So Zn is more reactive than Fe. Hence, it can be concluded that Zn is the most reactive metal and Cu is the least reactive metal out of zinc (Zn), copper (Cu) and iron (Fe).
