Question
Which iron compound is produced a reaction with copper (II) chloride solution?
![### Educational Content on Iron and Copper (II) Chloride Reactions
#### a. Reaction Between Solid Iron and Copper (II) Chloride Solution
The reaction between solid iron and a solution of copper (II) chloride can result in two different iron compounds, depending on the specific reaction conditions. The possible outcomes are as follows:
1. **Formation of Iron (II) Chloride (FeCl₂):**
\[
\text{Fe (s)} + \text{CuCl}_2 \text{(aq)} \rightarrow \text{FeCl}_2 \text{(aq)} + \text{Cu (s)}
\]
2. **Formation of Iron (III) Chloride (FeCl₃):**
\[
2\text{Fe (s)} + 3\text{CuCl}_2 \text{(aq)} \rightarrow 2\text{FeCl}_3 \text{(aq)} + 3\text{Cu (s)}
\]
In the above equations:
- \(\text{Fe (s)}\) stands for solid iron.
- \(\text{CuCl}_2 \text{(aq)}\) indicates an aqueous solution of copper (II) chloride.
- \(\text{FeCl}_2 \text{(aq)}\) represents an aqueous solution of iron (II) chloride.
- \(\text{FeCl}_3 \text{(aq)}\) signifies an aqueous solution of iron (III) chloride.
- \(\text{Cu (s)}\) denotes solid copper.
#### b. Claim, Evidence, and Reasoning Exercise
**Guiding Question:**
Which iron compound is produced in a reaction with a copper (II) chloride solution?
**Task:**
Balance the following equations using the proper coefficients and provide a brief claim, evidence, and reasoning to answer the guiding question.
**Balanced Equations:**
1. Formation of Iron (II) Chloride:
\[
\text{Fe (s)} + \text{CuCl}_2 \text{(aq)} \rightarrow \text{FeCl}_2 \text{(aq)} + \text{Cu (s)}
\]
2. Formation of Iron (III) Chloride:
\[
2\text{Fe (s)} + 3\text{CuCl}_2 \text{](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fb5f46b50-ac87-4bc7-be59-2db9270152c5%2F96ca0399-9d71-44ac-930a-b4d99bcc5525%2Fl49108c_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
