In today's experiment in chemistry, we will conduct and discuss a displacement reaction. For this, we will need some crystals of ferrous sulphate, pieces of zinc metal, an empty beaker, sterile and a glass full of water. First, we will make a solution of ferrous sulphate. So this plays a few crystals of ferrous sulphate in an empty beaker. Then add some water to the beaker and stir continuously. For a little while, you will get a clean solution of ferrous sulphate. Now this solution will be slightly pale yellow in color. Now to the solution of ferrous sulphate, we will add a few pieces of zinc metal. You will have to wait for a while because it will take a little time before the reaction starts. Now the left beaker is where the reaction is taking place. The right hand beaker contains freshly prepared ferrous sulphate solution. In the left hand beaker, the ferrous sulphate has reacted with zinc. For a while, you can remove the zinc metal pieces from the left hand beaker with the help of tweezers. In the left beaker, zinc sulphate solution will be prepared and iron will be deposited at the bottom of the beaker. Now this is an example of a displacement reaction. We are during a reaction, one metal is replaces another one. Here you can see iron deposits at the bottom of the beaker.
