The conversion of ferrous sulphate to ferric sulphate is_______________ reaction .
(oxidation, reduction ,decomposition))

✓

Answer

oxidation
Explanation: The conversion of ferrous sulphate (FeSO4) into ferric sulphate Fe2 (SO4)3 is an oxidation reaction.
2FeSO4→ Fe2(SO4)3
Net ionic reaction:

(a) In the above ionic reaction, 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 and losing of electrons is an oxidation reaction.
