Question

Solid silver is added to copper (ii) sulfate. does a single replacement reaction occur, and if so what is the correct chemical equation for this reaction? 2ag + cuso4 yields no reaction ag + cuso4 yields agso4 + cu ag + cuso4 yields ag2so4 + cu 2ag + cuso4 yields ag2so4 + cu

Answer 1

No reaction would occur because copper is more active than silver and silver would be unable to donate electrons to copper.
