Fathima Kousar answered this

when an iron nail is placed in a copper sulphate solution solution, iron displaces copper from copper sulphate solution forming iron sulphate, which is light green in colour. It is because iron is more reactive than copper.

becoz iron replace copper from copper sulphate so cu is replace from them so the colour change

CuSO4 + Fe = FeSO4 + Cu

@ hello Anu,

When an iron nail is placed in a copper sulphate solution, iron displaces copper from copper sulphate solution forming iron sulphate, which is green in colour.Therefore, the blue colour of copper sulphate solution fades and green colour appears.Heres the equation .............. CuSO4 +Fe ^_____> FeSO4 +Cu

Hope this helps you ........!! Cheers @ thumps up :)

iron replaces copper in this undergoing displacement reaction and forming FeSO4

it is a displacement reaction so irondisplaces copper

Archa K.r answered this

colour of Copper sulphate change when iron is dipped in it because as Fe is more reactive than Cu so it displaces Cu from copper sulphate and forms Iron sulphate, which is green in colour.

This is called displacement reaction.

Sudhan Shanmugam answered this

becoz it displaces the other element in a compound and as per the reactivity series Fe is more reactive than Cu

When an iron nail dipped in the copper sulphate solution than iron displaces copper from the copper sulphate because iron is more reactive than copper. Therefore the colour of the copper sulphate solution changes.

The reaction involved is

Manas Beniwal answered this

the colour of copper sulphate solution changes when an iron nail is dipped in it because , iron being a more reactive metal than copper displaces it from its salt solution and forms iron sulphate solution which is green in colour.

Ashutosh answered this

it changes due to a displacement reaction taking place.
it forms iron sulphate which is green in colour and the copper gets deposited on the iron nail.

Avira answered this

It changes from blue to Pale green because iron being more reactive than copper displaces copper from its aqueous salt solution as a result colour of solution changes and copper gets deposited of iron nail CUSO4 + Fe------_FeSO4 + Cu

Madhuvanthi answered this

When an iron nail is dipped in the copper sulphate solution than iron displaces copper from the copper sulphate because iron is more reactive than copper. Therfore, the colour of the copper sulphate solution changes.
The reaction involved here is:
Fe(s)+CuSO4(aq) -------------> FeSO4(aq)+Cu(s)

Giridhar Prabhu answered this

It changes from blue to green due to formation of iron sulphate
