Not all element symbols come from English words. Iron is one example.
Fe comes from the Latin word for iron: ferrum. In chemistry 'ferric' indicates the trivalent ion, Fe3+ and 'ferrous' indicates the divalent ion, Fe2+. Ferric oxide or Iron(III) oxide is rust, Fe2O3.
There are other examples including:
Tungsten, W for wolfram;
Sodium, Na for natrium;
Potassium, K for kalium.
For this you need the atomic mass of Fe. Take the number of grams and divide it by the atomic mass. Multiply by one mole for units to cancel..410 grams Fe / (55.9 grams) = .00733 moles Fe
Iron
He is the atomic symbol for Helium
Iron. That is why iron's symbol on the Periodic Table of Elements is 'Fe'.
The number of Neutrons and Protons in the nucleus.So it would be 26 Protons and 30 Neutrons so...26+30=56<so that is the mass number.
the chemical symbol for iron is Fe. the atomic number is 26
For iron, the symbol is Fe and the atomic number is 26. Iron has an atomic weight of 55.845g/mol
Iron (Fe).
Ferrum is Latin for iron, any tool made of iron and/or a sword.
Iron is represented by symbol Fe in the periodic table.It has atomic number 26.It belongs to group of transition metals.
Iron, with the chemical symbol Fe.
Iron (symbol Fe, atomic number 26) is subject to corrosion.
Yes iron or Fe (by its atomic symbol) is an element.
Fe stands for Iron, based on the Latin form of the word.
The symbol for the element iron is Fe. Ferrous is the latin for Iron - Fe is the abbreviated letters for this latin word. Hence the chemical symbol for iron is Fe from its latin origination. Fe is the abbreviation for ferrum, which is Latin for iron. The word also gives us "ferrous" meaning "containing iron". It comes from the Latin as in ferrous etc.
The element 'FE' represents iron. Hope this helped. -Sean
