The reduction of acidified solution of ferric ions by hydrogen gas takes gas takes place in the presence of zinc. Explain.

Answer» Reduction of acidified solution of ferric ions by hydrogen gas does not take place. If a small amount of Zn is added to reaction mixture, the hydrogen gas is converted into nascent hydrogen by Zn. The nascent hydrogen is highly reactive reactive and it reduces ferric ions to ferrous ions.
