Correct Answer: Option n
Explanation:
(a) IUPAC name of Fe\(_2\)(SO\(_4\))\(_3\) is iron (iii) tetraoxosulphate (VI)
(b)(i) Equation of reaction of H\(_2\)S and FeC\(_3\) is 2FeCI\(_3\) + H\(_2\)S \(\to\) 2FeCl\(_2\) + 2HCI + S.
(ii) Changes observed. Brown solution changes to green and yellow deposit is formed.
