Solution

The correct option is B

Copper cannot displace Fe


Copper cannot displace Fe from FeSO4 because as per the reactivity series for metals, copper is way below iron and hence cannot displace iron from it's compound.

Reactivity series is used to determine the products of single displacement reactions, whereby metal A will replace another metal B in a solution if A is higher in the series.
