    Which of the following reactions are possible?
    (i) \[\text{Mg+CuS}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}\to \text{MgS}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}\text{+Cu}\]
    (ii) \[\text{Ca+MgS}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}\to \text{CaS}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}\text{+Mg}\]
    (iii) \[\text{Cu+ZnS}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}\to \text{CuS}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}\text{+Zn}\]
    (iv) \[\text{Fe+MgS}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}\to \text{FeS}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}\text{+Mg}\]
     

    A) (iii) and (iv) only        

    B) (i) and (iv) only

    C) (ii) and (iii) only

    D) (i) and (ii) only

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    As per reactivity series, the reactivity order is\[\text{CaMgZnFeCu}\]. Hence, only reactions (i) and (ii) are possible as more reactive metal can displace a less reactive metal from its salt.
