Which chemical reaction involves the removal of electronegative element chlorine from ferric chloride?
Options
- A2 HgO (s) 2 Hg (l) + O 2 (g)
- B2 FeCl 3 (aq) + H 2 (g) → 2 FeCl 2 (aq) + 2 HCl(aq)
- CCH 2 = CH 2 (g) + H 2 (g) → H 3 C – CH 3 (g)
- D2HgCl 2 (aq) + SnCl 2 (aq) → Hg 2 Cl 2 (s)+SnCl 4 (aq)
Correct answer
B. 2 FeCl 3 (aq) + H 2 (g) → 2 FeCl 2 (aq) + 2 HCl(aq)
Step-by-step solution
This reaction involves the removal of electronegative element chlorine from ferric chloride.
