Molecular, Total and Net Equation?

Question

What is the molecular, total, and net Ionic equations for zinc and CuSO4?

Answer 1

Tiff, I don't know your course's definitions, but this is what I do know:
The reaction (in water) causes zinc (solid) to dissolve and ionize to the +2 state while Cu+2 is reduced to elemental copper. The SO4= goes along for the ride. OR
Zn + CuSO4 => ZnSO4 + Cu.
