MCQ
Which of the following processes does not involve oxidation of iron?
  • A
    Rusting of iron sheets.
  • B
    Decolourisation of blue $\ce{CuSO}_4$ solution by $\ce{Fe}.$
  • Formation of $\ce{Fe(CO)}_5$ from $\ce{Fe}.$
  • D
    Liberation of $H_2$ from steam by iron at high temperature.

Answer

Correct option: C.
Formation of $\ce{Fe(CO)}_5$ from $\ce{Fe}.$
$\because$ There is no change in oxidation state.
$\text{Fe}+5\text{CO}\xrightarrow{ \ \ \ \ \ \ }\text{Fe(CO)}_5$
$0\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 0 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 0 \ \ \ \ \ 0$
