Base metals in copper ion solution

The video shows what happens when two base metals, aluminum (Al) and zinc (Zn), are placed in a solution of copper sulfate. Since copper is more noble than both zinc and aluminum, the copper ions (Cu2+) will gain electrons and be reduced to copper metal, while the base metals become metal ions.
