Displacement Presentation
- 1. A teat pipette is used to fill a dimple on a spotting tile with a solution of copper sulphate.
- 2. A small amount of magnesium powder is added to the solution.
- 3. For the next ten minutes the spotting tile is observed for any signs of a reaction.
- 4. There is a fizzing The solution turns from blue to colourless A brown solid gathers at the bottom of the solution
- 5. Mg Reaction Cu Sulphate
- 10. Cu Mg Sulphate
- 11. Cu Mg Sulphate
- 12. Cu Magnesium is a more reactive metal than copper. The magnesium grabs the sulphate from the copper. Mg Sulphate
- 13. Cu The magnesium has pushed out copper from its compound. Magnesium has displaced the copper. Mg Sulphate
- 14. Mg Reaction copper sulphate + magnesium The word equation: Cu Sulphate
- 15. Cu copper sulphate + magnesium The word equation: Mg Sulphate
- 16. Cu copper sulphate + magnesium The word equation: Mg Sulphate
- 17. Cu copper sulphate + magnesium magnesium sulphate The word equation: Mg Sulphate
