Using a blast furnace. Iron ore is poured into a blast furnace which is heated to several thousand degrees Celsius, carbon is added to react with the oxygen and form carbon dioxide, other elements such as magnesium are added to react with impurities such as sulphur. Once the purification is complete a layer of all the impurities forms on top which is called slag. Remember, the slag always goes on top.
No, iron oxide is not an element. It is a compound of iron and oxygen. (There is more than one kind of iron oxide, too.)
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'.
Iron II oxide: FeO Iron III oxide: Fe2O3
No, it is a compound of a metal and a nonmetal. Pure iron is a metal, however.
It is not an element. It is an compound made of two elements: Iron and Oxygen, FeO.
It is made of iron oxide. It is made of iron oxide.
Flint is made from iron, iron oxide, and magnesium oxide.
Flint is made from iron, iron oxide, and magnesium oxide.
carbon dioxide Iron and Oxide form rust
No, iron oxide is not an element. It is a compound of iron and oxygen. (There is more than one kind of iron oxide, too.)
The scientific name for rust is iron oxide. It is made up of the elements iron and oxygen. Turning iron to iron oxide is an example of corrosion.

Iron oxide is a chemical compound made of iron and oxygen. It exists in two main forms: Fe2O3 (iron(III) oxide, or hematite) and Fe3O4 (iron(II,III) oxide, or magnetite).
Iron II oxide: FeO Iron III oxide: Fe2O3
To make iron sulfate, mix iron oxide with sulfuric acid. For iron hydroxide, mix iron sulfate with a strong base like sodium hydroxide to precipitate out the iron hydroxide. Iron oxide can be made by heating iron metal in the presence of oxygen.
Since iron oxide is made from TWO elements (Fe, and O), it is a compounds and so you have a MOLECULE, not an atom of iron oxide.
No, it is a compound of a metal and a nonmetal. Pure iron is a metal, however.
