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.


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

An oxidation half-reaction involves the loss of electrons. In the options provided, the correct oxidation half-reaction is D. Fe + 2e- → Fe²⁺, as it shows iron (Fe) losing two electrons to form Fe²⁺. Options A and B represent reduction processes, while C does not depict an oxidation reaction.


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

Fe + S = FeS or 2Fe +3S = Fe2 +S3


FeS reacts readily with an acid H plus aq to give the ion Fe2 plus and a gas H2S. What is the ballanced chemical equation for the reaction?

The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is: FeS + 2H⁺ → Fe²⁺ + H₂S


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.
