Reducing agent
Coagulant aid
Adsorbent
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: C. Coagulant aid.
Ferrous sulfate is a chemical compound with the formula FeSO4. It is
a white, water-soluble solid that is commonly used as a coagulant aid in water treatment. Coagulant aids are chemicals that are added to water to help remove suspended particles. Ferrous sulfate works by forming a precipitate with the suspended particles, which then sinks to the bottom of the tank and can be removed.Oxidizing agents are chemicals that can remove electrons from other substances. Reducing agents are chemicals that can donate electrons to other substances. Adsorbents are materials that can attract and hold onto other substances on their surface.
Ferrous sulfate is not an oxidizing agent, reducing agent, or adsorbent. It is a coagulant aid.
