Answer:

Explanation:

a )

Zn = Zn²⁺ + 2e ( oxidation reaction )

Fe³⁺ + 3e = Fe( s ) ( reduction reaction )

b )

[ Zn = Zn²⁺ + 2e ] x 3

[ Fe³⁺ + 3e = Fe( s ) ] x 2

-------------------------------------------------------------------

3 Zn + 2 Fe³⁺ + 6e = 3 Zn²⁺ + 2 Fe ( s ) + 6e

3 Zn + 2 Fe³⁺ = 3 Zn²⁺ + 2 Fe ( s )
