Answer:
Explanation:
we could see a displacement reaction Zn + Fe2SO4 gives ZnSO4 + 2Fe pls balance this equation When zinc is added to the solution of iron sulphate, the colour of iron sulphate solution changes. It is because zinc is more reactive than iron, therefore, it displaces iron from its solution of iron sulphate and a grey precipitate of iron and a colourless solution of zinc sulphate is formed. pls follow me and Mark as brainliest

: Required Answer
Zinc is more reactive (more electro positive) than iron. Therefore Zinc displaces Iron from its salt solution. The colour of ferrous sulphate is pale green, which turns colourless.
FeSO4 + Zn → ZnSO4 + Fe(s)
Light green Zinc sulphate(Colourless)
