Pieces of four metals A,B,C & D were one by one added to four solutions, namely Fe(II)SO4, Cu(II)SO4, ZnSO4 and AgNO3.The observations are tabulated below:
METAL:Fe(II)SO4 Cu(II)SO4 ZSO4 AgNO3
A No react Displacemnt - -
B Displacmnt - No react -
C - - No react Dsplacmnt
D - - No react No react
(d)Container of which metal can be used to store both ZnSO4 and AgNO3 solutions?

Question

Pieces of four metals A,B,C & D were one by one added to four solutions, namely Fe(II)SO4, Cu(II)SO4, ZnSO4 and AgNO3.The observations are tabulated below:
METAL:Fe(II)SO4    Cu(II)SO4      ZSO4      AgNO3  
A          No react   Displacemnt   -              -  
B         Displacmnt      -             No react    -
C               -                -             No react  Dsplacmnt
D               -                -             No react    No react
(d)Container of which metal can be used to store both ZnSO4 and AgNO3 solutions?

To store a solution, the metal should not react with the solution. Look up the chart and see which one does not react with both ZnSO4 and AgNO3.
