Iron oxide is considered a neutral oxide because it does not have acidic or basic properties. It is a compound that is formed by the reaction of iron and oxygen.
Neutral, rust is the oxygen salt of iron. Also, insoluble in water.
Calamine is a mixture of zinc oxide (ZnO) with about 0.5% iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3), so it looks rather neutral to slightly basic. Both are amphoteric oxides.
Basic oxides: Examples include sodium oxide (Na2O) and calcium oxide (CaO). Acidic oxides: Examples include sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2). Amphoteric oxides: Examples include zinc oxide (ZnO) and aluminum oxide (Al2O3). Neutral oxides: Examples include carbon monoxide (CO) and nitric oxide (NO).
A solution of FeCl3 is acidic because FeCl3 is a salt that contains a metal cation (Fe3+) and a non-metal anion (Cl-). When FeCl3 dissolves in water, it forms Fe3+ ions that can hydrolyze to produce H+ ions, leading to an acidic solution.
No, rust is not acidic. Rust is actually a product of a chemical reaction called oxidation, where iron reacts with oxygen in the presence of water to form iron oxide, commonly known as rust.

Iron oxide has little to no effect on pH because it does not readily dissolve in water to release ions that could alter the pH of a solution. However, in the presence of acidic or basic conditions, iron oxide may undergo reactions that could affect the pH indirectly.

Corrosion in acid solutions is much more rapid than in neutral solutions, and the latter is more rapid than in alkaline solutions
Fe2O3 It is neither an acid or a base, and it is a compound, not an element
Iron Oxide
Iron Oxide Its actually Iron(ii) Oxide there is no such thing as iron 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)
Acidic igneous rocks have a higher silica content and lower magnesium and iron content compared to basic igneous rocks. Acidic rocks are typically light in color and have a higher viscosity, meaning they are more resistant to flow. Basic rocks, on the other hand, have a lower silica content, higher magnesium and iron content, and are typically dark in color with lower viscosity.
