Answer:

CuSO4 + Fe -> FeSO4 + Cu

Explanation:

This reaction is a classic example of a redox reaction. I won't go in too deep, but the basic thing is that electrons from the Fe atom go to the Cu2+ ion. Therefore, Fe becomes an ion, and Cu - an electroneutral atom:

Fe + Cu2+ -> Fe2+ + Cu.

Silver is not a very reactive metal and it does not give up its electrons to Cu.
