A) \[ZnC{{l}_{2}}\] is formed
B) Mg is precipitated
C) Zn dissolves in the solution
D) no reaction takes place
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
A redox reaction is feasible only if the species which has higher reduction potential is reduced. The reduction potential of Mg is lower than zinc hence when Zn metal is added to a solution of \[MgC{{l}_{2}}\] no reaction takes place. \[Zn+MgC{{l}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}\] no reaction takes place.You need to login to perform this action.
