A student prepared an aqueous solution of CuSO4 in beaker X and an aqueous solution of FeSO4 in beaker Y. He then dropped some iron pieces in beaker X and some zinc pieces in beaker Y. After about 10 hours, he observed that the solution in X and Y respectively appear:
Greenish and colourless
A student observed a greenish and colourless solutions in beaker X and Y respectively.
Fe + CuSO4(aq) → FeSO4(aq) + Cu
(X) (Greenish)
Zn + FeSO4(aq) → ZnSO4(aq) + Fe
(Y) (Colourless)
