Why is iron III oxide incorporated into an airbag pellet?
iron(III) oxide, for the nitrogen-free formulation avoids formation of toxic nitrogen oxides
Is iron oxide a gas?
No, iron oxide is a solid.
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.)
Iron oxide formula?
Iron II oxide: FeO Iron III oxide: Fe2O3
If a rock formation contains a great deal of iron exposure to water will cause the rock to crumble. Why?
ii

What product is formed when iron rusts?
Rust is nothing but Ferrous oxide, also known as iron oxide, Iron (III) oxide, or Fe2O3. The outermost layer of the iron, which is in contact with the atmosphere, attracts oxygen and forms iron oxide which is called rusting. The rust itself forms a layer over the iron and prevents further iron oxide formation. When iron rusts the red substance formed is actually a mixture of Hydrated Iron(III) oxides and hydroxides.
When oxygen mixes with iron what does it do to the rock?
When iron mixes with oxygen, it causes iron oxide, commonly known as rust. Therefore it causes the rock to "rust".
Explain why painting steel stops iron oxide forming?
Forming iron oxide requires mutual contact between oxygen and iron atoms. A coating of paint that does not allow passage of oxygen therefore prevents formation of iron oxide because oxygen from the air can not contact the iron atoms in the iron object painted.
What is ironore?
Iron ore is the IMPURE mineral rock that contains Haematite (Iron (III) Oxide).
What happens to the proportion of iron oxide in volcanic rock as the level of silicon dioxide increases?
THe amount of iron oxide decreases as the level of silica increases.
How many atoms of iron would be in the reactants if a chemical reaction such as the formation of iron oxide?
It could be either 1 or 2. You can't just say iron oxide without noting the oxidation state of iron. It could be FeO or Fe2O3.
A planet that appears reddish yellow due to iron oxide in its rock?
Mars
What evidence of chemical change occur in iron rust?
The evidence of chemical reaction in the rusting of an iron nail is a color change. This is due to the formation of iron oxide, which is the reaction between iron and oxygen.
What is the name of the ionic compound FeO?
Iron Oxide Its actually Iron(ii) Oxide there is no such thing as iron oxide.
Is rust an element of iron and oxygen called iron oxide?
Rust is not an element but compounds of iron. The brown oxide of iron is ferrous oxide and the black oxide of iron is ferric 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)
