What will happen if you drop
a silver ring in a copper sulphate solution?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Reactivity Series**: The first step is to understand the reactivity of the metals involved. In this case, we have silver (Ag) and copper (Cu). The reactivity series is a list of metals arranged in order of decreasing reactivity. Copper is more reactive than silver. 2. **Identifying the Reaction**: When a metal is placed in a solution of a salt of another metal, a displacement reaction may occur if the first metal is more reactive than the second. In this case, we are placing a silver ring in a copper sulfate (CuSO4) solution. 3. **Analyzing the Situation**: Since copper is more reactive than silver, silver cannot displace copper from the copper sulfate solution. Therefore, no reaction will occur. ...
