  2. Thermite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermite

    Red iron(III) oxide (Fe 2 O 3, commonly known as rust) is the most common iron oxide used in thermite. [ 14 ] [ 15 ] [ 16 ] Black iron(II,III) oxide (Fe 3 O 4 , magnetite ) also works. [ 17 ] Other oxides are occasionally used, such as MnO 2 in manganese thermite, Cr 2 O 3 in chromium thermite, SiO 2 (quartz) in silicon thermite, or copper(II ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_of_chemicals

    Lycopene is a classic example of a compound with extensive conjugation (11 conjugated double bonds), giving rise to an intense red color (lycopene is responsible for the color of tomatoes). Charge-transfer complexes tend to have very intense colors for different reasons.

  5. 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 ...

    Thiocyanate is a common test for the presence of iron(III) as it forms the blood-red [Fe(SCN)(H 2 O) 5] 2+. Like manganese(II), most iron(III) complexes are high-spin, the exceptions being those with ligands that are high in the spectrochemical series such as cyanide. An example of a low-spin iron(III) complex is [Fe(CN) 6] 3−.

    [1] [2] [3] It was observed again in 1873 by Frederick Guthrie in Britain. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] While doing work on charged objects, Guthrie discovered that a red-hot iron sphere with a negative charge would lose its charge (by somehow discharging it into air).

  8. Mill scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mill_scale

    Mill scale is a complex oxide that contains around 70% iron with traces of nonferrous metals and alkaline compounds. Reduced iron powder may be obtained by conversion of mill scale into a single highest oxide i.e. hematite (Fe 2 O 3) followed by reduction with hydrogen.

  9. Iron (II) acetate - Wikipedia

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

    Iron(II) acetate describes compounds with formula Fe(CH 3 CO 2) 2 ·(H 2 O) x where x can be 0 (anhydrous) or 4 (tetrahydrate). The anhydrous compound is a white solid, although impure samples can be slightly colored. [1] The tetrahydrate is light green solid that is highly soluble in water.
