Like other iron(II) salts, iron(II) sulfate is a reducing agent. For example, it reduces nitric acid to nitrogen monoxide and chlorine to chloride: 6 FeSO 4 + 3 H 2 SO 4 + 2 HNO 3 → 3 Fe 2 (SO 4) 3 + 4 H 2 O + 2 NO 6 FeSO 4 + 3 Cl 2 → 2 Fe 2 (SO 4) 3 + 2 FeCl 3. Its mild reducing power is of value in organic synthesis. [44]
The free radicals generated by this process engage in secondary reactions. For example, the hydroxyl is a powerful, non-selective oxidant. [6] Oxidation of an organic compound by Fenton's reagent is rapid and exothermic and results in the oxidation of contaminants to primarily carbon dioxide and water.
Cementite (or iron carbide) is a compound of iron and carbon, more precisely an intermediate transition metal carbide with the formula Fe 3 C. By weight, it is 6.67% carbon and 93.3% iron.
This process is described by the Schikorr reaction: 3 Fe(OH) 2 → Fe 3 O 4 + H 2 + 2 H 2 O. Anions such as selenite and selenate can be easily adsorbed on the positively charged surface of iron(II) hydroxide, where they are subsequently reduced by Fe 2+. The resulting products are poorly soluble (Se 0, FeSe, or FeSe 2).
The chemical reaction is as follows: CaCO 3 → CaO + CO 2 The reaction is used to make quick lime, which is an industrially important product. Another example of thermal decomposition is 2Pb(NO 3) 2 → 2PbO + O 2 + 4NO 2. Some oxides, especially of weakly electropositive metals decompose when heated to high enough temperature.
A single-displacement reaction, also known as single replacement reaction or exchange reaction, is an archaic concept in chemistry. It describes the stoichiometry of some chemical reactions in which one element or ligand is replaced by atom or group. [1] [2] [3] It can be represented generically as: + +
In the United Kingdom, for example, out-of-pocket health care costs totaled $764 per person in 2022. “We don’t consume a lot more health care than other countries,” said Dr. Atul Grover ...
For example, it will react with diluted sulfuric acid under heating forming potassium sulfate, ferric sulfate and hydrogen cyanide. 2 K 3 [Fe(CN) 6] + 6 H 2 SO 4 → 3 K 2 SO 4 + Fe 2 (SO 4) 3 + 12 HCN. This won't occour with concentrated sulfuric acid as hydrolysis to formic acid and dehydration to carbon monoxide will take place instead. [17]
