Which of the following reactions will not take place?
(A) Zn+ FeSO4→ZnSO4 +Fe
(B) 2 Kl + Cl2 →2KCl +l2
(C) Zn+ MgSO4 →MgSO4 +Mg
(D) Mg+ CuSO4→MgSO4 +Cu
Correct option (C) Zn+ MgSO4 →MgSO4 +Mg
Explanation:
According to reactivity series more reactive metals displace less reactive metals. Therefore Zn cannot displace Mg.
