  2. Iron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron

    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. [59]

  4. Iron(III) oxide - Wikipedia

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

    Iron(III) oxide is a product of the oxidation of iron. It can be prepared in the laboratory by electrolyzing a solution of sodium bicarbonate, an inert electrolyte, with an iron anode: 4 Fe + 3 O 2 + 2 H 2 O → 4 FeO(OH) The resulting hydrated iron(III) oxide, written here as FeO(OH), dehydrates around 200 °C. [18] [19] 2 FeO(OH) → Fe 2 O 3 ...

  5. Iron oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_oxide

    Iron oxide pigment. The brown color indicates that iron is at the oxidation state +3. Green and reddish brown stains on a limestone core sample, respectively corresponding to oxides/hydroxides of Fe 2+ and Fe 3+. Iron oxides feature as ferrous or ferric or both. They adopt octahedral or tetrahedral coordination geometry. Only a few oxides are ...

  6. Iron (II,III) oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron(II,III)_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.

    Low-pressure phase diagram of pure iron. BCC is body centered cubic and FCC is face-centered cubic. Iron-carbon eutectic phase diagram, showing various forms of Fe x C y substances. Iron allotropes, showing the differences in structure. The alpha iron (α-Fe) is a body-centered cubic (BCC) and the gamma iron (γ-Fe) is a face-centered cubic (FCC).

  8. Group 8 element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_8_element

    Group 8 is a group (column) of chemical elements in the periodic table. It consists of iron (Fe), ruthenium (Ru), osmium (Os) and hassium (Hs). [1] "Group 8" is the modern standard designation for this group, adopted by the IUPAC in 1990. [1] It should not be confused with "group VIIIA" in the CAS system, which is group 18 (current IUPAC), the ...

  9. Iron nitrides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_nitrides

    Iron has five nitrides observed at ambient conditions, Fe 2 N, Fe 3 N 4, Fe 4 N, Fe 7 N 3 and Fe 16 N 2.They are crystalline, metallic solids. Group 7 and group 8 transition metals form nitrides that decompose at relatively low temperatures—iron nitride, Fe 2 N decomposes with loss of molecular nitrogen at around 400 °C and formation of lower-nitrogen content iron nitrides.
