the valance number of iron is 3 why,becouse in the formula after iron there is 3.the question ask you what is the valency of Fe3O4....
In iron trichloride the valence of iron is +3 and the valence of chlorine -1.
+3 valency
the valency of boron is -3
iron can make 6 electrons which have outer electrons.iron mixed with oxide will make a gas called iron oxide. iron oxide is used a lot in lab research and testing.
The formula Fe3O4 is an empirical formula, and a more nearly structural formula is FeO.Fe2O3, which shows valency 2 in its first part and valency 3 in its second part. Two-thirds of the iron cations have valency 3 and the others valency 2, combined in a single crystal structure.
Iron has variable valence. It can be either 2 or 3.

Certain elements combine with other atoms, donating, accepting or sharing electrons in different proportions depending on the nature of the reaction. For example, iron combines with oxygen to form ferrous oxide as well as ferric oxide. In the formation of ferrous oxide, iron exhibits a valency of +2, whereas in ferric oxide, it has a valency of +3. This is termed variable valency
In iron trichloride the valence of iron is +3 and the valence of chlorine -1.
This indicates the valency of the element... for eg:- iron(II) this means that iron has the valency of two in this particular reaction.... but iron also do have the valency three... To create a difference between the iron of valency two... and iron of valency three.. they write the roman numeral..
This is an especially complicated valency problem, because Fe3O4 is a combination of Fe2O3 and FeO. As usual, except in peroxides and superoxides, oxygen is assigned a valency of -2. This means that the iron in Fe2O3 has a valency of +3 while the iron in FeO has a valency of +2. (Note that these two oxides of iron also occur separately from each other, as well as in Fe3O4.) Therefore, the average valency of iron in Fe3O4 is 8/3, a rare example of fractional valency made possible only by the fact that iron in this compound actually exists in two integral valence states in the same compound.
Itron has both 2 and 3 valencies int his compound
Variable valencies are the valencies which can change e.g. Fe (iron) can either have the valency of 2 (Fe II) or 3 (Fe III)
Iron has two electrons in the outa shell meaning that it has a valency of +2 Lewis is awes!!!
Variable valencies are the valencies which can change e.g. Fe (iron) can either have the valency of 2 (Fe II) or 3 (Fe III)
PO4 has its valency 3 but, PO3 also has its valency 3
