  2. Iron(II) sulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron(II)_sulfide

    Iron(II) sulfide or ferrous sulfide (Br.E. sulphide) is one of a family of chemical compounds and minerals with the approximate formula Fe S. Iron sulfides are often iron-deficient non-stoichiometric .

  3. Iron compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_compounds

    The iron compounds produced on the largest scale in industry are iron(II) sulfate (FeSO 4 ·7H 2 O) and iron(III) chloride (FeCl 3). The former is one of the most readily available sources of iron(II), but is less stable to aerial oxidation than Mohr's salt ((NH 4) 2 Fe(SO 4) 2 ·6H 2 O). Iron(II) compounds tend to be oxidized to iron(III ...

  4. Oxidation state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidation_state

    In chemistry, the oxidation state, or oxidation number, is the hypothetical charge of an atom if all of its bonds to other atoms are fully ionic. It describes the degree of oxidation (loss of electrons) of an atom in a chemical compound. Conceptually, the oxidation state may be positive, negative or zero.

  5. Microbial oxidation of sulfur - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbial_oxidation_of_sulfur

    Reactions of oxidation of sulfide to sulfate and elemental sulfur (incorrectly balanced). The electrons (e −) liberated from these oxidation reactions, which release chemical energy, are then used to fix carbon into organic molecules. The elements that become oxidized are shown in pink, those that become reduced in blue, and the electrons in ...

  6. Dibenzyl sulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dibenzyl_sulfide

    Dibenzyl sulfide is a symmetrical thioether. It contains two C 6 H 5 CH 2 - (benzyl) groups linked by a sulfide bridge. It is a colorless or white solid that is soluble in nonpolar solvents.

  7. Iron–sulfur protein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron–sulfur_protein

    Three sulfide ions bridge two iron ions each, while the fourth sulfide bridges three iron ions. Their formal oxidation states may vary from [Fe 3 S 4] + (all-Fe 3+ form) to [Fe 3 S 4] 2− (all-Fe 2+ form). In a number of iron–sulfur proteins, the [Fe 4 S 4] cluster can be reversibly converted by oxidation and loss of one iron ion to a [Fe 3 ...

  8. HSAB theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSAB_theory

    HSAB is an acronym for "hard and soft (Lewis) acids and bases".HSAB is widely used in chemistry for explaining the stability of compounds, reaction mechanisms and pathways. It assigns the terms 'hard' or 'soft', and 'acid' or 'base' to chemical species.

  9. Metal nitrosyl complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_nitrosyl_complex

    Each iron atom is bonded linearly to two NO + ligands and shares two bridging sulfidi ligands with the other iron atom. Roussin's black salt has a more complex cluster structure. The anion in this species has the formula [Fe 4 (NO) 7 S 3] −. It has C 3v symmetry. It consists of a tetrahedron of iron atoms with sulfide ions on three faces of ...
