Write the equation for the laboratory preparation of the following salt using sulphuric acid: Iron (II) sulphate using Fe.

Open in App

Solution

When Iron (Fe) reacts with dilute sulphuric acid, H₂SO₄, the salt Iron (II) sulphate (FeSO₄) is produced with the release of Hydrogen gas.
It is a type of displacement reaction as iron (Fe) displaces hydrogen (H) from H₂SO₄. It shows that Fe is a reactive metal.
The chemical equation :
$Fe (s) + H_{2} {SO}_{4} (aq) \to {FeSO}_{4} (aq) + H_{2} (g)$
