Question

the conversion of ferrous sulphate to ferric sulphate is oxidation reaction. Explain

Answer 1

when feSo4 is transformed into Fe2(SO4)3 is an oxidation reaction because here fe2+ is transformed into 2fe3+ is oxidation reaction oxidation means lossing e- plz like ans

Answer 2

Answer:

the conversion of ferrous sulphate into ferric sulphate is a oxidization reaction

Explanation: Here FeSO4 is transformed into Fe2(SO4).let us now see how this conversion is an oxidizing reaction :

                                FeSO4 ⇒ Fe2SO4

                net ionic reaction  Fe2+ ⇒  Fe3+            

                                                  (Ferrous)        (Ferric)

When ferric ion is formed from ferrous ion the positive charge is increased by one unit.While this happens the ferrous ion loses one electron. From this,we understand a new defination of oxidation which is "Oxidation means losing one or more electrons."

If useful then like and any mistake in writing or in answer sorry for that and comment me
