Options:

A) ferrous sulphate reacts with $ FeCl_3 $

B) ferric sulphate reacts with $ K_4Fe{{( CN )}_6} $

C) ferrous ammonium sulphate reacts with $ FeCl_3 $

D) ammonium sulphate reacts with $ NO_2 $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

[b] $ 2Fe_2{{(SO_4)}_3}+3K_4[(Fe{{(CN)}_6}]\to $

$ \underset{Prussianblue}{\mathop{Fe_4{{[Fe{{( CN )}_6}]}_3}}}+6K_2SO_4 $
