What is a substance that has the ability to form iron oxide?

Iron and oxygen together.


Iron atoms are destroyed When iron rusts?

No. Atoms cannot be destroyed by chemical processes. When iron rusts it bonds with oxygen to form iron oxide.


Is oxygen in iron?

Yes, and the product is common rust. When iron is exposed to oxygen, it combines with it to form iron oxides, the most common of which is red iron (III) oxide, Fe2O3. This is the corrosion present on any iron object you see. The other commonly encountered form is black iron (II, III) oxide, Fe3O4, better known as magnetite.


What 2 things are needed to make iron rust?

Whenever water or air is around iron for a while it can rust because the iron bonds to the oxygen forming iron oxide.


What type of bonding does rust have?

rust, (primarily iron III oxide) is has ionic bonds.


What is iron oxide made up of?

Iron oxide is made up of iron and oxygen combined together. There are three types of iron oxide viz., Iron(II) oxide (FeO) occasionally referred to as 'greenstone' , because it is slightly green in colour. Iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3) commerically referred to as iron ore. It is the most common and stable of the oxides of iron. Iron(IV)Oxide (Fe3O4) known as magnetite. Because a rod or bar of it will orientate towards the north pole. Historically it was named 'lodestone'.


What is the name of the ionic compound FeO?

Iron Oxide Its actually Iron(ii) Oxide there is no such thing as iron oxide.


Is rust an element of iron and oxygen called iron oxide?

Rust is not an element but compounds of iron. The brown oxide of iron is ferrous oxide and the black oxide of iron is ferric oxide.


Is iron oxide a gas?

No, iron oxide is a solid.


What is the formula for iron (III) oxide?

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 elements are in iron oxide?

We know that iron (Fe) and oxygen (O) make up iron oxide. (There is more than one oxide of iron, by the way.)


What is the iron II oxide formula?
