  1. Iron metal will replace copper (which is lower in the activity series) to make iron (II) sulfate and copper metal.

    Fe(s) + CuSO4(aq) --> FeSO4(aq) + Cu(s)

    This is a single replacement reaction, aka, a redox reaction, in which iron metal is oxidized to Fe (II) ions and copper (II) ions are reduced to copper metal.
