  2. Iron compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_compounds

    Iron shows the characteristic chemical properties of the transition metals, namely the ability to form variable oxidation states differing by steps of one and a very large coordination and organometallic chemistry: indeed, it was the discovery of an iron compound, ferrocene, that revolutionalized the latter field in the 1950s. [1]

  4. Iron(III) oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron(III)_oxide

    Iron(III) oxide was the most common magnetic particle used in all types of magnetic storage and recording media, including magnetic disks (for data storage) and magnetic tape (used in audio and video recording as well as data storage). Its use in computer disks was superseded by cobalt alloy, enabling thinner magnetic films with higher storage ...

  5. Iron oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_oxide

    Electrochemically oxidized iron (rust) An iron oxide is a chemical compound composed of iron and oxygen. ... use iron oxides as terminal electron acceptors. [11]

  6. Ferric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferric

    Potassium ferrioxalate contains the iron(III) complex [Fe(C 2 O 4) 3] 3−. In chemistry, iron(III) or ferric refers to the element iron in its +3 oxidation state. Ferric chloride is an alternative name for iron(III) chloride (FeCl 3). The adjective ferrous is used instead for iron(II) salts, containing the cation Fe 2+.

  7. Ferrous - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrous

    Iron(II) chloride tetrahydrate, FeCl 2 ·4H 2 O. In chemistry, iron(II) refers to the element iron in its +2 oxidation state. The adjective ferrous or the prefix ferro-is often used to specify such compounds, as in ferrous chloride for iron(II) chloride (FeCl 2). The adjective ferric is used instead for iron(III) salts, containing the cation Fe 3+.

  8. Fenton's reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fenton's_reagent

    Iron(II) sulfate is typically used as the iron catalyst. The exact mechanisms of the redox cycle are uncertain, and non-OH • oxidizing mechanisms of organic compounds have also been suggested. [citation needed] Therefore, it may be appropriate to broadly discuss Fenton chemistry rather than a specific Fenton reaction.

  9. Ferrous metallurgy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrous_metallurgy

    Iron and copper working spread southward through the continent, reaching the Cape around AD 200. [6] [7] The widespread use of iron revolutionized the Bantu-speaking farming communities who adopted it, driving out and absorbing the rock tool using hunter-gatherer societies they encountered as they expanded to farm wider areas of savanna. The ...
