50 POINTS!!! PLS ANSWER FAST In each test, iron(II) sulfate and iron(III) nitrate were combined with the same substance or substances. However, the sulfate and nitrate parts of the compounds didn’t participate in any of the chemical reactions; only the iron ions reacted. Comparing the results for each pair of tests, what can you conclude about the iron(II) and iron(III) ions?

There are various kind of reaction like combustion reaction, displacement reaction. So to solve this problem we must be knowing the displacement reaction. Displacement reaction is taking place over here

What is displacement reaction?

Displacement reaction is a reaction in which one atom replaces other atom from a molecule on the basis of reactivity strength. The element which on the top of reactivity series displace the element that is lying below to that reactive element

According to our question the balanced equation is

FeSO₄+Zn ZnSO₄+Fe(II)

Fe(NO₃)₂+Zn Zn(NO₃)₂+Fe(II)

In both reaction Zn is more reactive than Fe(II) and Fe(III) that is why Zn replace or displace iron ion from its compound of sulfate and nitrate. Metal displace metals. anions are displaced by anions. So, here metal is displaced by zinc.

Thus we can conclude that zinc is more reactive than iron Fe(II) and Fe(III). Displacement reaction is taking place over here

Hope this helps!
