Question 2

The colour of the solution observed after 30 minutes of placing zinc metal to copper sulphate solution is

  1. Blue
  2. Colourless
  3. Dirty green
  4. Reddish Brown
Answer

Colourless

Reason — Zinc due to its high reactivity displaces copper from copper sulphate and forms zinc sulphate and thus copper gets deposited and the blue coloured solution becomes colourless.

Zn + CuSO4 ⟶ Cu + ZnSO4
