Answer:

Cupric ions

Explanation:

In the single displacement reaction shown, the cupric ions lost two electrons.

    Cu²⁺  + 2e⁻ →  Cu

The replacement of a metallic ion in solution by a metal atom higher in the activity series than than the metal in solution falls into this category of reactions.

  Since Zn higher in the series, it displacements the cupric ions.
