Zn rod is immersed in `CuSO_4` solution.What will you observe after an hour ? Explain you observation in terms of redox reaction .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`ast` The blue colour of `CuSO_4` solution will get discharged and reddish brown copper metal will be deposited on Zn rod.
`ast` This is because blur color `Cu^(2+)` (in `CuSO_4`) gets reduced to Cu by accepting two electrons from Zn, which gets oxidised to colourless `ZnSO_4`.
