Name the salt.
(b)
Write the balanced chemical equation.
6. A
zinc plate was put in a solution of copper sulphate kept in glass containe. It
was found that blue colour of the solution gets fader and fader with the
passage of time. After few days, when zinc plate was takenfrom the solution a
number of holes were observed on it.
(a)
State the reason for changes observed on the zinc plate.
(b)
write the chemical equation for the reaction involved.
