Remove/place

The blue tablecloth has been removed from the table.

The white tablecloth has been placed on the table.

Is the usage of remove/place correct in those cases? Can I replace on by across?

Thanks

Hi,

Say 'on' if you are trying to make "the opposite" of the first sentence.

'Across' is correct grammar, but so would be other prepositions, eg under, near.
