You are given a solution of iron sulphate. Which of the following do you think cannot displace iron from iron sulphate?

An element burns in air to form an oxide. The aqueous solution of this oxide turns blue litmus paper red. State whether the element is a metal or nonmetal. Name one such element.

The metal X reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid to form a gas Y. The metal X also reacts with sodium hydroxide solution (on heating) to form the same gas Y. When a lighted matchstick is applied, this gas burns by producing a ‘pop’ sound.

(a) name two metals which could behave like X

(b) Name the gas Y
