Iron-Fe- being more reactive than copper-Cu- displaces latter from CuSO4-xA0-to form FeSO4- The reaction can be written as-Fe-CuSO4-x2192-FeSO4-Cu

A solution of CuSO4 was kept in an iron pot. After few days the iron pot was found to have a number of holes in it. The balance equation of the reaction involve is:2Fe+CuSO4→Fe2(SO4)3+CuFe+CuSO4→FeSO4+CuFe+CuSO4→Fe2SO4+Cu3Fe+CuSO4→Fe3(SO4)4+Cu

Iron(Fe) being more reactive than copper(Cu) displaces latter from CuSO4 to form FeSO4. The reaction can be written as:Fe+CuSO4→FeSO4+Cu

Iron(Fe) being more reactive than copper(Cu) displaces latter from $C u S O_{4}$ to form $F e S O_{4}$ . The reaction can be written as:
$F e + C u S O_{4} \to F e S O_{4} + C u$
