What is the oxidation number of the Fe in FeO?
+2 for Fe, -2 for O
If iron were to bond with oxygen predict the formula for each oxidation number of iron?
feo2 feo3 feo4
Oxidation numbers of Fe?
Fe3O4 can be considered to be 1:1 mixture of FeO and Fe2O3. Oxidation number in FeO: +2 for Fe and -2 of O Oxidation number in Fe2O3: +3 for Fe and -2 of O
What is the oxidation number of iron in Fe304?
Fe3O4 is FeO.Fe2O3 and it is always -2 for Oxygen and +2 for iron (in FeO) and +3 for iron (Fe2O3)
What is the oxidation number of iron in ferrousofericoxide?
I am going to assume you meant ferrous oxide. Ferrous oxide is also known as Iron(II) oxide and has the formula unit FeO. The oxidation number of iron in iron(II) oxide is +2.

What is the oxidation number of iron in Fe304?
Fe3O4 is FeO.Fe2O3 and it is always -2 for Oxygen and +2 for iron (in FeO) and +3 for iron (Fe2O3)
What is the oxidation number of iron in ferrousofericoxide?
I am going to assume you meant ferrous oxide. Ferrous oxide is also known as Iron(II) oxide and has the formula unit FeO. The oxidation number of iron in iron(II) oxide is +2.
What is the oxidation number of iron(II) oxide?
I am going to assume you meant ferrous oxide. Ferrous oxide is also known as Iron(II) oxide and has the formula unit FeO. The oxidation number of iron in iron(II) oxide is +2.
How are oxidation number determined and used?
This may best be demonstrated by example: Here are two forms (read: oxidation numbers) of iron, as FeO and Fe2O3. Because we know oxygen has a -2 charge per atom, the oxidation number of Fe in FeO is II. As for Fe2O3, we know that the oxidation number of Fe is III; there is no charge on the compound, so the two iron molecules must equally offset the -6 charge from the three oxygen atoms. Oxidation numbers are written as roman numerals. You would write these two forms of iron oxide as iron(II) oxide and iron(III) oxide, respectively. Oxidation states are the (+) or (-) charges written as a superscript.
Why is the compound FeO not named iron oxide?
Because the other iron oxides Fe3O4, Fe2O3 would have the same name. In order for this to not happen you should indicate the oxidation number of iron.
What is the oxidation number for iron iii?
Iron II is also known as ferrous ions (Fe2+). Ferrous ions, has an oxidation number of +2. The oxidation numbers for the "odd" transition metals that have more than one oxidation number are always the number that is written after the element name (Added:) and it thereby is the charge of it ion. So Fe(III), ferric ion, is Fe3+
What is the oxidation number of IF?
oxidation number of I is -1. oxidation number of F is +1.
When does iron show the 4th oxidation state?
Never. iron shows either +2 or +3 oxidation state but in Fe3O4 its oxidation state is seems to +4 but it is actually mixture of one moles FeO and one mole Fe2O3 , (FeO.Fe2O3 = Fe3O4).
What is the oxidation number of HClO?
Hydrogen's oxidation number is +1.Chlorin's oxidation number is +1.Oxygen's oxidation number is -2.
