MCQ
Observe the given figure carefully.

$X$ and $Y$ respectively are:
  • A
    $Zn$ and $Ag$
  • B
    $Au$ and $Cu$
  • C
    $Fe$ and $Cu$
  • $Zn$ and $Cu$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$Zn$ and $Cu$
Zinc is more reactive than copper so, $Zn$ displaces $Cu$ from its blue, $CuSO_4$ solution and forms colourless, $ZnSO_4$ solution.
$\begin{matrix}\text{Zn}&+&\text{CuSO}_4&\rightarrow&\text{ZnSO}_4&+&\text{Cu}\\\text{(X)}&&(\text{Blue})&&\text{(Colourless)}&&\text{(Y)}\end{matrix}$
