Answer:
12.7g of Cu
Step-by-step explanation:
First let us generate a balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:
Zn + CuSO4 —> ZnSO4 + Cu
Molar Mass of Cu = 63.5g/mol
Molar Mass of CuSO4 = 63.5 + 32 + (16x4) = 63.5 + 32 + 64 = 159.5g/mol
From the equation,
159.5g of CuSO4 produced 63.5g of Cu.
Therefore, 31.9g of CuSO4 will produce = (31.9 x 63.5) / 159.5 = 12.7g of Cu
