When ammonium hydroxide is added to a solvent of iron (ll), sulphate a green ppt of iron (ll) hydroxide, and ammonium Sulphate are formed. Write in the form of balanced chemical equations

When ammonium hydroxide is added to a solvent of iron (ll) sulphate a green ppt of iron (ll) hydroxide and ammonium sulphate are formed. The reaction is given below:

NH4OH + FeSO4→ (NH4)2SO4 + Fe(OH)2


The above reaction is an example of double displacement reaction.


Note: The reaction in which there is an exchange of ions between


the reactants takes place is called double displacement reaction.
