Manish was given aqueous solutions of silver nitrate, zinc sulphate and an iron nail. In the first experiment, he dipped iron nail in silver nitrate solution and observed that the solution turned brown. In second experiment, he dipped iron nail in zinc sulphate solution. However, no change was observed.
Based on the above information, answer the following questions.
If he adds zinc strip in ferrous sulphate solution, what colour change will he observe?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In second experiment, Manish observed that no reaction has occurred. It means zinc is more reactive than iron. Hence, zinc can displace iron from ferrous sulphate solution and the green colour of ferrous sulphate solution will disappear.
