FeCl2, FeCl3
The symbol for iron chloride is FeCl3.
The symbols for iron chloride plus hydrogen are: FeCl2 + H2.
CuCl2
No, iron chloride is not an element. Iron chloride is a chemical compound composed of the elements iron and chlorine. Iron is the element with the atomic number 26 and symbol Fe, while chlorine is the element with the atomic number 17 and symbol Cl.
The chemical symbol for iron is Fe, and the symbol for chlorine is Cl. If you meant when they are combined, there are two possibilities: FeCl2 for ferrous chloride or FeCl3 for ferric chloride.
Iron(III) Chloride / Ferric Chloride / Iron Trichloride
There are two iron chlorides : Iron(II) Chloride = FeCl2 Iron(III) Chloride = FeCl3
Ferric or Iron (III) = Fe3+Chloride = Cl-Fe3+ + Cl- = Fe2Cl
The symbol for beryllium is Be, and the symbol for chloride is Cl. Therefore, the symbol for beryllium chloride would be BeCl2.
There is iron (II) chloride (ferrous chloride, iron dichloride). There is also iron (III) chloride (ferric chloride, iron trichloride).
The chemical formula (not symbol) for hydrogen chloride is HCl.
The chemical formula for ferrous chloride or iron (II) chloride is FeCl2.
