Give Reason:
1.Ammonium hydroxide can detect ferrous ions in ferrous sulphate solution.
Dear student,
Because of,
When ammonium hydroxide is added to a solvent of iron (ll) Sulphate, a green ppt of iron (ll) hydroxideand ammonium Sulphate are formed.
The given reaction is an example of a double displacement reaction.
A double displacement reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which ions of two reactants are interchanged in order to form two new products.
For example, AB + CD → CB + AD
Similarly, when ammonium hydroxide reacts with iron sulphate, ammonium, and iron interchange their positions to form iron hydroxide and ammonium sulphate.
The balance chemical reaction can be written as:-
FeSO₄(aq) + 2 NH₄OH(aq) → (NH₄)₂SO₄(aq) + Fe(OH)₂(s)
iron ammonium ammonium iron
sulphate hydroxide sulphate hydroxide
