No, it is both acidic and basic, called amphoteric (='in between')
Yes, it is amphoteric, at the same time it behaves like acid AND like base:
- it acts as an acid when in a base:
FeO(s) + 2OH-(aq) +H20(l) -> [Fe(OH)4]2-(aq)
- it reacts as a base when in acid:
FeO(s) + 2H+(aq) -> Fe2+(aq) + H2O(l)

Citric acid react with ferrous oxide?
the ferrous oxide is desolved. and turned in to ferrous hydroxide.
Is Cerium Oxide Ferrous or Non-Ferrous?
Definitely NOE-FERROUS. The word 'ferrous/ferric' is the Latin based adjective for IRON. (Ferrum). Since there is no iron present in cerium oxide then it is non-ferrous.
What are the elements found in ferrous oxide?
The elements found in ferrous oxide are iron (Fe) and oxygen (O).
What is the formula for oxygen and iron?
FeO for ferrous oxide, ( iron(II) oxide); Fe2O3 for ferric oxide, (iron(III) oxide) and Fe3O4 for ferrous ferric oxide, (iron (II,III) oxide)
Where does Ferrous Oxide occur?
Rust

What is the iron II oxide formula?
FeO for ferrous oxide, ( iron(II) oxide); Fe2O3 for ferric oxide, (iron(III) oxide) and Fe3O4 for ferrous ferric oxide, (iron (II,III) oxide)
What is the formula for oxygen and iron?
FeO for ferrous oxide, ( iron(II) oxide); Fe2O3 for ferric oxide, (iron(III) oxide) and Fe3O4 for ferrous ferric oxide, (iron (II,III) oxide)
Is nitric oxide a basic oxide or an acidic?
Nitric oxide is acidic in nature.
What is the formula for iron (III) oxide?
