Distinguish between Ferrous and nonferrous minerals

2FeSO4(s) + Heat → Fe2O3(s) + SO2(g) + SO3(g) It is a thermal decomposition reaction

Here is Reaction with Balance 10FeC2O4 + 6KMnO4 + 24H2SO4 ----> 3K2SO4+ 6MnSO4 +  5Fe2(SO4)3 + 24H2O + 20CO2 So we see that  6 moles of KMnO4 is required to oxidize 10 moles of  FeC2O4  Then, 1 mole of FeC2O4 would be...

Substances that are stronger oxidising agents than ferrous ions can oxidise ferrous ions. Fe2+ → Fe3+ + e-1  ;   Eø =  - 0.77 V This implies that the substances having higher reduction potentials than +0.77 V can...

Minerals are naturally occurring chemical substances containing metals. They are found in the Earth’s crust and are obtained by mining. Ores are rocks and minerals viable to be used as...

Metals are present in metallic minerals, while they are absent in non-metallic minerals.

(i) Green to white, then brown  (ii) Water  (iii) As of burning sulphur  (iv) Ferric oxide, sulphur dioxide, sulphur trioxide (v) Decomposition reaction

Iron absorbed by plants is Ferric

Stock Flow 1 The variables that are measured at a particular point of time. For example, bank balance as on 1st Oct 2010 is Rs.5000. 1 The variables that are measured over an interval of...

Conservation of minerals is important for the following reasons: (i) Minerals are exhaustible. (ii) They are limited. (iii) Minerals have manifold uses. (iv) Growth of industrialisation has accelerated the extraction of minerals. We can conserve...

Nuclear or atomic energy is obtained by altering the structure of atoms. When such an alternation is made, much energy is released in the form of heat and this is...
