Q

What colour change occur during the following reaction?

MnO4^- + 8H^+ → Mn^2+ + 4H2O + 5Fe^3+

A

Purple to pink

17
Q

What colour change occurs when HCl is added to [Fe(H2O)6]^3+?

A

Yellow solution to yellow solution

18
Q

What colour change occurs when iodide ions are added to Fe^3+?

A

Yellow to brown

the Fe^2+ would be green but the brown of the I2 is stronger

19

blue solution to yellow solution

20
Q

What colour change occurs when iodide ions are added to [Cu(H2O)6]^2+?

A

blue solution to a brown solution with a white precipitate in

21
Q
