The II indicates the charge or oxidation state of iron, which in this case is 2+.
Roman numerals are often used to show the oxidation states or ionic charges of metals in their compounds (which are always positive).
Iron can also form the iron III ion which carries a 3+ charge.
2
The ionic compound FEL2, a compound of iron and iodine, are dark-violet to black hygroscopic leaflets that are soluble in water and alcohol. It is commonly referred to as ferrous iodide or iron II iodide.
Fe = iron SO3 = sulfite Iron (II) sulfite Transition metals always need roman numerals to represent their charges.
Iron PhosphideFe - Iron P - Phosphorus3 and 2 refer to how many atoms there are to make the compound neutral.Phosphorus has a charge of -3 and Iron has a charge of +2.*Note: Iron can have two charges, +3 and +2.Iron with a positive charge of +3 is called Iron (III) or Fe (III)Iron with a positive charge of +2 is called Iron (II) or Fe (II)In this case it has a charge of +2. Also remember that Fe (III) and Fe (II) is represented by Roman Numerals NOT numbers.~Hope that answered your question.
Barium II Chloride is the ionic compound.
II is 2 in Roman Numerals.
2
if you mean II as in the roman numerals then it is 2
40 and 2
It just means Roman Numerals, like II and VI.
The number 2 in Roman numerals is written as "II".
No, Roman numerals are not used in covalent compounds. Roman numerals are used in the naming of ionic compounds to indicate the charge of a transition metal ion. In covalent compounds, the elements are combined through sharing of electrons and do not involve ions with specific charges.
'2'(two) in Roman numerals is 'II' That is Capital 'I' .
The numeral one. II is two, III is three.
we usually use roman numerals in writing names of compounds of transitional elements which have more than one valency . for example we have two compounds of iron chloride , iron(II)chloride and iron(III)chloride depending on the valency of iron in each compound.
ii plus xii equals xiv in Roman numerals.
February 2nd, 2009 in Roman numerals is written as "II.II.MMIX".
