When copper salt is added in iron powder
What does it produce
When copper salt is added to iron powder, it can produce a chemical reaction called a displacement or a single replacement reaction. The copper ions in the copper salt solution will react with the iron powder and displace the iron ions, forming copper metal and iron ions in solution. This reaction can be represented as follows:
CuSO4 + Fe -> FeSO4 + Cu
In simple terms, adding copper salt to iron powder produces copper metal and iron sulfate (FeSO4) in solution.
When copper salt is added to iron powder, it will result in a chemical reaction called a displacement reaction. In this reaction, copper will displace iron from its salt.
The specific product that is produced will depend on the type of copper salt used. For example, if copper sulfate (CuSO4) is added to iron powder (Fe), it will produce iron sulfate (FeSO4) and copper metal (Cu).
The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is:
Fe + CuSO4 → FeSO4 + Cu
