Identify the type of reaction in the following example:
Fe(s) + CuSO4(aq) → FeSO4(aq) + Cu(s)
Answered Feb 05, 2023
It is a displacement reaction.
Answer: We have 1 mole of CuSO4 contains 1 mole of copper. Molar mass of CuSO4 = Atomic mass of [Cu × 1 + S × 1 + O × 4 ] =(63.5) + (32.00)...
(i) Yes (ii) No
Oxidizing agents = H2SO4 and Reducing agents = Fe Oxidizing agents = Cl2 and Reducing agents = H2 Oxidizing agents = MnO2 and Reducing agents = HCl.
[Hint : KMnO4, since Mn is showing maximum oxidation state of + 7.]
Because water molecules act as ligands and results in crystal Fleld splitting of d-orbitals of Cu2+ ion.
CuSO4 does not has any ligand, so splitting of d-orbital take place while CuSO4.5H2O has water ligand.
It is a double displacement as well as a precipitation reaction.
i. 1 : 1 molar mixture of FeSO4 and (NH4)2SO4 forms a double salt, FeSO4.(NH4)2SO4.6H2O (Mohr’s salt) which exists only in solid state. In aqueous solution, it dissociates into ions...
(c) 3CuSO4 + 2PH3 → Cu3 P2 + 3H2 SO4 3HgCl2 + 2PH3 → Hg3 P2 + 6HCl
Because FeSO4 gets hydrolysed if its solution is stored for long.
