Because metals that are more reactive than carbon wont react with it.
a balanced chemical equation occurs when the number of the atoms involved in the reactants side is equal to the number of atoms in the products side.
Answer:
B. 3+
Explanation:
When Fe²⁺ loses an electron, it becomes an Fe³⁺ ion.
The loss of an electron in an atom makes the atom becomes positively charged. Further losing electrons makes the atom more positive.
For the given ion;
Fe²⁺ if it loses an electron more, it becomes Fe³⁺.
The expression is given as:
Fe²⁺ → Fe³⁺ + e⁻
