Question

The pair of compounds that can exist together is

• A. $FeCl_3,SnCl_2 $
• B. $HgCl_2,SnCl_2$
• C. $FeCl_2,SnCl_2$
• D. $FeCl_3,Kl $

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The compounds with lower oxidation number and which cannot reduced by one another can exist together. Thus, $FeCl_2 $ and $SnCl_2 $ can exist together as $Fe^{2+} $ cannot be reduced by $Sn^{2+} $
