What happens when dilute sulphuric acid is poured into a copper plate? |
Copper chloride is formed Copper sulphate is formed Zinc sulphate is formed No reaction takes place. |
Copper sulphate is formed |
The correct answer is option 2. Copper sulphate is formed. When dilute sulfuric acid is poured onto a copper plate, copper sulfate is formed. The chemical reaction can be represented as follows: Cu(s) + H2SO4(aq)→CuSO4(aq)+H2(g) This reaction involves the displacement of hydrogen from sulfuric acid by copper, resulting in the formation of copper sulfate (CuSO4) and the evolution of hydrogen gas (H2). |
