The conversion of Ferrous Sulphate to Ferric Sulphate is …………….reaction .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Explanation: The conversion of ferrous sulphate `(FeSO_(4))` into ferric sulphate `Fe_(2)(SO_(4))` is an oxidation reaction.
`2FeSO_(4)to Fe_(2) (SO_(4))`
Net ionic reaction: `underset(("Ferrous"))(Fe^(2+))tounderset(("Ferric"))(Fe^(3+))`
(a) In the above ionic reaction, when ferric ion is formed from ferrous io, the positive charge is increased by onhe unit. While this happens, the ferrous ion loses one electron and losing of electrons is an oxidation reacton.
