The iron filings react with copper sulfate, the copper is displaced and iron sulfate results.
The reaction between iron filings and copper sulfate is represented by the equation below:
[tex]Fe + CuSO_4--- > FeSO_4 + Cu[/tex]
The iron filings displace the copper from copper sulfate to form iron sulfate. Thus, elemental copper and iron sulfate are formed.
Iron is able to displace copper from copper sulfate because iron ranks higher than copper in the reactivity series.
