Is it advisable to store ferrous sulphate in a zinc container?

No. The zinc will react with the ferrous sulphate, dissolving the zinc and forming solid iron. This is due to the positions of iron and zinc in the activity series.See the Related Questions for more information about the activity series.


What color is zinc Sulphate?

Zinc is silvery white in color when solid metal, while as an ion (zn2+) its color is white!Like other metals it is silver in color, but sometimes it becomes white due to the formation of Zinc oxide (formed in the reaction of zinc with oxygen in the air)


What happens when barium sulphate reacts with copper sulphate?

No reaction takes place due to the presence of the same Sulphate anion in both the compounds.


What is in zn2so4?

Zn is the formulaic notation for the element 'Zinc' and H2SO4 is the formulaic notation for 'Sulphuric Acid'. These two react together to form ZnSO4 + H2, that is Zinc Sulphate and Hydrogen gas. This is actually a Redox (reduction/Oxidation) reaction, the Zinc is usually reacted in its solid form with aqueous Sulphuric acid. In this case the Zinc is to be oxidised, the hydrogen is to be reduced and the SO4 (or sulphate) is a spectator ion (which means it plays no actual part in the reaction.) The H2 is suspended in solution in its ionic form (due to the partially polar conditions of water) This Zinc DONATES its valence electrons (forming Zn2+, an ionic form of zinc) and the Hydrogen ACCEPTS these electrons (going from 2H+ to H2, gaining an electronically stable outer shell) The Donation of elections means that substance has been oxidised and the accepting of those electrons means that substance has been reduced. One cannot occur without the other.


Does hydrated copper sulphate increase the mass?

Hydrated Copper Sulphate is CuSO4.5H2O and Anhydrous copper sulphate is just CuSO4. Therefore, hydrated copper sulphate has extra mass due to water molecules present in it.

When zinc metal is placed into a solution of copper sulphate a pinky brown metal is formed but when a piece of silver metal is placed into another solution of copper sulphate no change is observed Why?

Silver is lower in the reactivity series than Zinc and therfore cannot displace the Sulphate from the Zinc. But on the other hand zinc is higher than copper, and when displacing the sulphate from the copper it changes colour due to the reaction. Reactivity series(metals): Potassium Sodium Lithium Calcium Magnesium Aluminium Zinc Iron Tin Lead Copper Silver Gold Platinum

Why tongue tastes bitter after fever?

The Tongue Tastes Bitter after feverRetention of pathogenic heat in the liver and gall bladdercauses Retching, bitter taste in the mouth with thirst, irritability, insomnia, hypochondriac pain, yellowish tongue coating, wiry and rapid pulse.Disharmony of qi circulation in the liver and gall bladder channels is due to interior heat retention in the liver and gall bladder. This causes hypochondriac pain, bitter taste in the mouth


Is a persimmon sweet?

When ripe, a persimmon is sweet and tastes as bit like citrus. If they are not fully ripe, they can taste bitter, due to their high tannin content.


When zinc rod is dipped in a solution of aqu copper sulphate copper is precipitated out?

This is due to something called a displacment reaction, during a displacment reaction one of the particals from one of the substances "swap" with another partical from the solution In the case of zink and copper sulphate solution, the copper and zink 'switch places to produce copper and a solution of zink sulphate. This is how, A + BC = B +AC

When Zinc plate was kept in a glass container having CuSO4 examine it found that blue colour of solution is getting lighter After few days when zinc plate was taken out no of holes were noticed?

This because when we place zinc in copper sulphate solution then due to lower reduction potential and higher oxidation potential it consists the ability to loose electrons to copper as copper have more reduction potential (0.34) therefore it gains electrons from zinc. due to transfer of electrons the colour faints and after some days we will see that whole of the zinc gots oxidised and becomes zn2+.

Which part of the human tongue recongnises bitter taste?

Without the capacity to taste things that were bitter or foul-tasting, we would not be able to detect poisons or off food along with things which we are not supposed to consume. However, there are a significant percentage of the human population who cannot taste bitter any more, due to a distinct lack of random poisonous things being consumed and selecting out those without bitter taste buds in recent evolutionary history.
