1 A Redox reaction
2 Metallic iron is a reducing agent
3 \(F{e^{3 + }}\)is an oxidising agent
4 Metallic iron is reduced to \(F{e^{3 + }}\)
Explanation:
(d) \(\mathop {4Fe}\limits^{\,\,\,0\,\,} + 3{O_2}\,\,\,\, \to \mathop {4Fe}\limits^{\,\,\,\,3 + } + 6{O^{2 - }}\), in this reaction metallic iron is oxidised to \(F{e^{3 + }}\).
