What happens if NaOH is added to ferrous ammonium sulphate solution and warmed? What is the inference?

Open in App

Solution

1. The reaction is as follows:

[Fe(NH₃)₆]SO₄ (aq) + NaOH(aq) $\to$ Fe(OH)₃(s) + 6 NH₃(g) + NaSO₄(aq)

2. Inference: Fe ions precipitate in pressence of a base, due to formation of hydroxide ions.
