In laboratory settings, you can make react a mixture of powdered sulphur

and iron filings by heating. The end product is Ferrous Sulfide;

Fe + S ----> FeS

Iron sulfides in nature are Pyrite and Marcasitewhose formula is; FeS2 .

Is an oxidation half-reaction A. Fe2 plus Fe3 plus plus e- B. Fe3 plus plus e- Fe2 plus C. Fe(s) Fe(l) D. Fe plus 2e- Fe2 plus?

A. Fe^2+ ==> Fe^3+ + e- is an oxidation reactionB. Fe^3+ +e- ==> Fe^2+ is a reduction reactionC. Fe(s) ==> Fe(l) is neither an oxidation nor a reduction reaction. It is a phase change.D. Fe + 2e- ==> Fe^2+ is not a possible reaction.


What is the balance chemical equation and classification of iron and sulfur?

What is the oxidation half reaction for Fe(s) 2HCl(aq) FeCl2(aq) H2g?

The oxidation half-reaction is: Fe => Fe+3 + 3e-, and the reduction half-reaction is: F2 + 2e- => 2 F-1. For a complete equation, the oxidation half-reaction as written must be multiplied by 2 and added to the reduction half-reaction as written multiplied by 3 to result in an overall reaction of 2 Fe + 3 F2 = 2 FeF3.


How do you write and balance equations for the reactants of iron metal and chlorine gas react to form solid iron chloride?

Fe2+Cl=FeCl (Original)Fe2+2Cl=2FeCl (Balanced)---- The two in front of the FeCl balances Fe by making it Fe2, but also turns Cl into Cl2. So you put a 2 in front of the Cl reactant, balancing Cl and Fe.

Formula for Iron nail dipped in copper sulphate solution?

When an iron nail is dipped in copper sulfate solution, a displacement reaction occurs. The iron nail will displace the copper from the copper sulfate solution to form iron sulfate solution and copper metal deposits on the nail. This reaction is represented by the equation: Fe(s) + CuSO4(aq) → FeSO4(aq) + Cu(s).
