Question

The products obtained due to the reaction between K₂SO₄ and Cu(NO₃) are ________ and __________.

• A. KNO₃
• B. CuSO₄

Answer 1

• The chemical reaction in which two reactants combine to form two new substances by mutual exchange of their radicals is called double displacement reaction.
• The reaction between potassium sulphate (K₂SO₄) and cupric nitrate Cu(NO₃ )₂ is a double displacement reaction.
• The products are potassium nitrate (KNO₃) and copper sulphate (CuSO₄).
• K₂SO₄ (aq) + Cu(NO₃)₂ (aq) $\to$2 KNO₃ (aq) + CuSO₄(aq)
• The products obtained due to the reaction between K₂SO₄ and Cu(NO₃)₂ are KNO₃ and CuSO₄.
