For each metal/solution combination, write the molecular and net ionic equation

Question

For each metal/solution combination, write the molecular and net ionic equation for each single replacement reaction that did occur. If the metal was not oxidized, indicate that by and equation

1. Magnesium meta; zinc sulfate solution

2. Copper metal; zinc sulfate solution-----no reaciton occured

3. magnesium metal; copper(II) sulfate solution

4. zinc metal; copper (II) sulfate solution

5. zing metal; magnesium sulfate solution ----- no reaction occured

6 copper metal; magnesium sulfate solution ---- no reaction occured

Explanation / Answer

(1) Mg(s) + ZnSO4(aq) => Zn(s) + Mg(SO4)(aq)

Mg(s) + Zn2+(aq) => Zn(s) + Mg2+(aq)

(2) Cu(s) + ZnSO4(aq) => no reaction

(3) Mg(s) + CuSO4(aq) => Cu(s) + Mg(SO4)(aq)

Mg(s) + Cu2+(aq) => Cu(s) + Mg2+(aq)

(4) Zn(s) + CuSO4(aq) => Cu(s) + Zn(SO4)(aq)

Zn(s) + Cu2+(aq) => Cu(s) + Zn2+(aq)

(5) Zn(s) + MgSO4(aq) => no reaction

(6) Cu(s) + MgSO4(aq) => no reaction
