Dilute solution of ammonium hydroxide is added to aqueous solution of ferrous sulphate and ferrous hydroxide is formed. What type of reaction is this? Write chemical equation.

Open in App

Solution

It is a double displacement reaction as exchange of ions is taking place between the reactants.
The equation is- ${FeSO}_{4} (aq) + 2 {NH}_{4} OH (aq) \to {Fe(OH)}_{2} (s) + {(NH}_{4})_{2} {SO}_{4} (aq)$
