Test Displacement Reactions Flashcards
A more reactive metal will ………
Displace ( kick out) a less reactive metal from its compound
From most to lest reactive
Copper , magnesium, zinc , iron
Most Lest
Magnesium, zinc , iron , copper
Magnesium + copper sulfate ————->
————> magnesium sulfate + copper
What happens when you mix copper sulfate and an iron nail
Goes orange covered in red solid copper
What happens when you mix copper sulfate and zinc
There is no reaction
What happens when you mix copper sulfate and magnesium
Fizzes , black powder, blue solution fades
Copper sulfate + zinc ——>
——-> zinc sulfate + copper
Copper sulfate + iron —->
—-> iron sulfate + copper
Silver is less or more reactive than zinc
Less and silver can not displace zinc
What happens when you mix silver nitrate and copper metal wire
Grey solid silver made and solution goes blue
Copper sulfate + magnesium——>
——-> magnesium sulfate + copper
What happens when you mix magnesium and copper sulfate solution
Red and brown solid copper formed
Blue colour of solution fades
Magnesium + hydrochloric acid —>
—> magnesium chloride + hydrogen
Copper sulfate + magnesium—> magnesium sulfate + copper do the symbols for this
CuSO4 + Mg —> MgSO4 + Cu
List from most to lest
