    C)  copper                

    D)         mercury

    E)  sodium

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[Fe+\underset{dill.}{\mathop{{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}}}\,\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}FeS{{O}_{4}}+{{H}_{2}}\uparrow \] \[\underset{hot}{\mathop{3Fe}}\,+4\underset{(steam)}{\mathop{{{H}_{2}}O}}\,\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}4{{H}_{2}}\uparrow +F{{e}_{3}}{{O}_{4}}\]
