1. What is the colour of FeSO4.7H20 crystals?How does this colour change upon heating?

Melanterite or FeSO4.7H20 is green in color
2FeSO4 ---> Fe2O3 + SO2 + SO3

2. a. What are redox reactions?
It is a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between two species. 

b.Why is the reaction between MnO2 and HCl a 
redox reaction?
Because there are atoms that are reduced and are oxidized.

c.Identify the substance oxidized and the 
substance reduced in the above reaction.

MnO2 + 4 HCl ---> MnCl2 + 2H2O + Cl2
Mn was reduced and Cl was oxidized
