You have made a mistake in your question, as iron does not have a charge, it is the iron ION. As chloride ion has a charge of -1, in order to gain the overall neutral charge of the compound we need to even out a charge of -2 (as there are two chloride ions). As there is only one iron ion, its charge must be 2+. It is an iron(II) ion, as opposed to iron(III) ion (which has a charge of 3+).

Hope it helps.

Iron is (Fe+3) because Cl is -1 and there are three Cl.

Fe is a metal while Cl is a non metal. FeCl is formed by Fe+ and Cl- ions bond together. Charge of the Fe ion is +1.

Balanced equation. 2Fe + 3Br2 -> 2FeBr3 need limiting reactant; suspect iron 9.20 mole Fe (3 mole Br2/2 mole Fe) = 13.8 moles the stated iron moles are not nearly this much; iron limits and drives the reaction looks one to one, so................ 9.20 moles Fe (2 moles FeBr3/ 2mole Fe) = 9.20 moles FeBr3 produced
