Iron(II) oxide or ferrous oxide is the inorganic compound with the formula FeO. Its mineral form is known as wüstite. [3] [4] One of several iron oxides, it is a black-colored powder that is sometimes confused with rust, the latter of which consists of hydrated iron(III) oxide (ferric oxide).
Iron(II,III) oxide, or black iron oxide, is the chemical compound with formula Fe 3 O 4.It occurs in nature as the mineral magnetite.It is one of a number of iron oxides, the others being iron(II) oxide (FeO), which is rare, and iron(III) oxide (Fe 2 O 3) which also occurs naturally as the mineral hematite.
The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.
Iron(III) oxide is insoluble in water but dissolves readily in strong acid, e.g., hydrochloric and sulfuric acids. It also dissolves well in solutions of chelating agents such as EDTA and oxalic acid. Heating iron(III) oxides with other metal oxides or carbonates yields materials known as ferrates (ferrate (III)): [18] ZnO + Fe 2 O 3 → Zn(FeO ...
The red-purple tetrahedral ferrate(VI) anion is such a strong oxidizing agent that it oxidizes nitrogen and ammonia at room temperature, and even water itself in acidic or neutral solutions: [13] 4 FeO 2− 4 + 10 H 2 O → 4 Fe 3+ + 20 OH − + 3 O 2
Electrochemically oxidized iron (rust) An iron oxide is a chemical compound composed of iron and oxygen.Several iron oxides are recognized. Often they are non-stoichiometric. ...
The formula for magnetite is more accurately written as FeO·Fe 2 O 3 than as Fe 3 O 4. Magnetite is one part FeO and one part Fe 2 O 3, rather than a solid solution of wüstite and hematite. Magnetite is termed a redox buffer because, until all Fe 3+ present in the system is converted to Fe 2+, the oxide mineral assemblage of iron remains ...
The result: 1 liter of water can dissolve 1.34 × 10 −5 moles of AgCl at room temperature. Compared with other salts, AgCl is poorly soluble in water. For instance, table salt (NaCl) has a much higher K sp = 36 and is, therefore, more soluble. The following table gives an overview of solubility rules for various ionic compounds.
