First of all to correct your formula. It is ' Fe2O3'. Note the use of Capital Letters and the position of the numbers.
Secondly ' Fe' is the Latin initials for the word 'iron', which is 'Ferrum'.
Hence Fe2O3 is Iron Oxide.
Iron exhibits different oxidation states. For given compound of iron, it is correctly named as 'Iron (III) Oxide '. ' Said as 'Iron three oxide '. In everyday terms , this is 'RUST'. Or mined as 'iron ore'.
Archaically it would be named as 'Ferric Oxide'. Note the root word 'ferric/ferrum' for iron. Also note the use of Roman Numerals (III) for '3' , to indicate oxidation state.
Iron also exhibits different oxidation states. This makes for the other iron compound
' FeO ' , which is Iron (II) Oxide, and is archaically named as Ferrous Oxide. It is in oxidation state (II) '2'. This is much less common and is green in colour.
What else can I help you with?
What is the name of the ionic compound FeO?
Iron Oxide Its actually Iron(ii) Oxide there is no such thing as iron oxide.
Chemical Name for FeO?
No such compound exists. If it did it would be iron VI oxide, but iron cannot reach such a high oxidation state. Perhaps you mean Fe2O3, iron III oxide.
What is the word equation for iron oxygen?
iron oxide
What is iron oxide an element mixture solution or compound?
Actually there are several iron oxides, iron(II)oxide, iron(III)oxide and iron(II,III)oxide, and iron(III)oxide comes in four so-called 'phases'.All of these are compounds of iron with oxygen.
How would each formula be named for feo2 feo3 and feo4?
Its difficult to understand your question, I can make an assumption (although your stoichiometry is off). Are you asking about Iron Oxide compounds? Iron is a transition metal, abbreviated "Fe." It has two oxidative states, +2 and +3--often written as Fe (II) and Fe (III). If you have Fe(II) oxide, FeO, it would be called "ferrous oxide." If you have Fe(III) oxide, Fe2 O3, it would be called "ferric oxide." The other forms in your question aren't correct and I cannot answer them.
Fe2o3 is named iron oxide because it contains?
Fe2O3 is named iron oxide because it is a compound composed of two iron (Fe) atoms and three oxygen (O) atoms. This combination forms a mineral with a red-brown color, giving it the common name "iron oxide."
If metal rusts is it the same metal?
Rust is the oxide of Iron. So iron has chemically combined with oxygen, to form a different compounds named iron oxide . This oxide contains in combined form iron and oxygen.
Fe2O3 is named iron oxide because it contains which type of iron ions?
Fe2O3 is named iron oxide because it contains Fe+ ions.
What is iron oxide made up of?
Iron oxide is made up of iron and oxygen combined together. There are three types of iron oxide viz., Iron(II) oxide (FeO) occasionally referred to as 'greenstone' , because it is slightly green in colour. Iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3) commerically referred to as iron ore. It is the most common and stable of the oxides of iron. Iron(IV)Oxide (Fe3O4) known as magnetite. Because a rod or bar of it will orientate towards the north pole. Historically it was named 'lodestone'.
What is the name of the ionic compound FeO?
Iron Oxide Its actually Iron(ii) Oxide there is no such thing as iron oxide.
What is the formula for iron (III) 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)
Why is Fe2O3 named iron III oxide?
Iron exists in two oxidation states: Fe2+ and Fe3+. To distinguish between these two oxidation states and to specify which kind of ion will form on dissociation, they are named as Iron II and Iron III. Now, Fe2O3 contains the Fe3+ ion. That is why, it is called iron III oxide.
What is the iron II oxide formula?
FeO for ferrous oxide, ( iron(II) oxide); Fe2O3 for ferric oxide, (iron(III) oxide) and Fe3O4 for ferrous ferric oxide, (iron (II,III) oxide)
Is iron oxide a gas?
No, iron oxide is not a gas. It is a solid compound composed of iron and oxygen atoms.
What elements are in iron oxide?
We know that iron (Fe) and oxygen (O) make up iron oxide. (There is more than one oxide of iron, by the way.)
Chemical Name for FeO?
No such compound exists. If it did it would be iron VI oxide, but iron cannot reach such a high oxidation state. Perhaps you mean Fe2O3, iron III oxide.
What is the word equation for iron oxygen?
iron oxide
