FeSO4 forms a light green solution due to the presence of iron, while adding NaOH produces a dirty green precipitate that identifies FeSO4. FeCl3 appears reddish brown when NaOH is added, distinguishing it from FeSO4 based on the color of the precipitates formed with NaOH.

ess work can be done with these. Most Transition Elements are coloured.

SO4 is blue in colour due to the presence of Copper.FeSO4 is light green due
the presence of Iron.
OH and NH4OH are used because they form precipitate and makes the
ntification easier.

w will you distinguish between FeSO4 and FeCl3?

d NaOH to both the solutions, out of the precipitates formed the dirty green
ecipitate and the reddish brown precipitate are FeSO4 and FeCl3 respectively.
