They are both a type of metal. and both can be administered into the body. Some people use Iron and Zinc in vitamins. Also smart peoplle have more iron and zinc in their hair.

What metal can displace iron from iron chloride Zinc or iron or Copper?
zinc
What is the metal used for galvanising iron?
It is the element zinc in its molten state that we dip iron or steel into to galvanize it.
Zinc and iron from foods?
Well, you weren't very clear on what the question was, but zinc and iron are found in foods. There is lots of iron in cornflakes.
What happens when you mix iron and Zinc Oxide and heat it?
a redox reaction takes place ( one gains oxygen and the other looses oxygen) the zinc (oxide) is displaced and the iron becomes iron oxide and zinc oxide becomes zinc
Does zinc react with iron sulphate?
Zinc and iron sulphate do react. Zinc is higher in the reactivity series than iron. It can therefore displace sulphate from the iron and 'take' the sulfate. Zinc + Iron Sulphate ------------> Zinc Sulphate + Iron The reactivity series is as follows: Potassium Sodium Lithium Calcium Magnesium Aluminium Zinc Iron Tin Lead Copper Silver Gold Platinum There are many clever ways to remember this too. This is the metal reactivity series BTW(by the way)

How can you get zinc and Iron in form of tablet?
There are zinc and iron pills at the pharmacy.
Galvanized iron is coated with what metal?
Galvanized iron is iron coated with a thin layer of zinc...the reason for this is the the zinc is oxidizes easier than the iron so even if the layer of zinc is broken the zinc will oxidize before the iron......

What will happen when zinc is added to iron filling?
You will have a mixture of zinc and iron filings.
Which will melt first zinc or iron?
Zinc
Which is more reactive iron or zinc?
zinc
Would zinc and iron nitrate react?
No, there would be no reaction present. This is because the particles are more reactive in the zinc then they are in the iron, thus creating no displacement reaction to occur between the metals.
What are the properties of galvanized iron?
it is the stuff arlo perry puts in his bum
Why doesn't my Zinc react with my ferrous sulfate?
Because zinc is less reactive than iron on the reactivity series for metals, so the zinc will not single-replace the iron. Iron will replace zinc, however, in the reverse reaction.

Which is the least metallic zinc iron silver or cadmium?
zinc
