Verified by Experts

When zinc is added to a solution of iron (II) sulphete, then the greenish colour of iron (II) sulphate solution fades gradually due to the formation of colourless zinc sulphate solution, and iron metal is deposited on zinc:
`underset("Iron (II) sulphate (Greenish solution)")(FeSO_(4)(aq))+underset("Zinc (Silvery-white)")(Zn(s))tounderset("Zinc sulphate (Colourless solution)")(ZnSO_(4)(aq))+underset("Iron (Grey)")(Fe(s))`.
