Chemistry Question on Chemical Reactions

Yellow colored solution of FeCl3FeC{{l}_{3}} changes to light green, when:

A

SnCl2SnC{{l}_{2}} is added

B

Zn is added

C

H2S{{H}_{2}}S gas is passed

D

all of these

Answer

all of these

Explanation

Solution

Yellow coloured solution of FeCl3FeC{{l}_{3}} is turned green due to the reduction of it. (i.e., conversion into Fe2+F{{e}^{2+}} ). SnCl2SnC{{l}_{2}} and H2S{{H}_{2}}S are reducing agent and Zn is more electropositive than Fe, hence, all of them turn yellow FeCl3FeC{{l}_{3}} solution into green Fe2+F{{e}^{2+}} solution.
