Given below is a redox reaction. Which of the following types the reaction belong to? \( \boldsymbol{C u}^{+\mathbf{2 + 6 - 2}} \boldsymbol{O}_{4(a q)}+\boldsymbol{Z} \boldsymbol{n}_{(s)} \rightarrow \boldsymbol{C u}_{(s)}+ \) \( \underset{Z n S O_{4(a q)}}{+2+6+-2} \)
- Combination reaction
- Decomposition reaction
- Metal displacement reaction
- Non-metal displacement reaction
Correct answer: Metal displacement reaction
Solution
Zinc displaces copper from copper sulfate, forming zinc sulfate and copper metal. Since one metal replaces another metal in a compound, this is a metal displacement reaction.
