No, the chemical equation is not balanced. It should be: 2Fe2O3 + 3C -> 4Fe + 3CO2.
The chemical symbol for iron is Fe and for oxygen is O.
In the balanced chemical equation 4Fe + 3O2 -> 2Fe2O3, the coefficient in front of iron (Fe) is 4.
Yes, the reaction 4Fe + 3O2 -> 2Fe2O3 is a combination reaction. In this reaction, iron (Fe) reacts with oxygen (O2) to form iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3).
4Fe(s) + 3O2(g) ===> 2Fe2O3(s)
Fe ions =,Fe 2+andFe 3+Oxygen ions =,O 2-So, as you should see, Fe3O4, is an invalid species as the charge on the first iron ion would be 3 * 2+ = 6 +, and the charge on the second iron ion would be 3 * 3+ = 9+. This can not equal 4 * 2- = 8 -.
4Fe + 3O2 --> 2Fe2O3
The formula for iron (III) oxide is FeCl3, whether the formula is in a balanced equation or anywhere else where the formula is properly used.
Assuming you mean 2FeO3+3C ---> 4Fe+3CO2, yes, it is balanced.
The balance equation would be 4Fe + 3O2 ==> 2Fe2O3, so the coefficients are 4, 3, 2.
The balanced chemical equation for the formation of Fe2O3 from Fe and O is: 4Fe + 3O2 -> 2Fe2O3
O does not exist by itself. The balanced equation would be 4Fe + 3O2 --> 2Fe2O3
There are two possible equations as iron is capable of forming two different oxides: O2 + 2Fe --> 2FeO 3O2 + 4Fe --> 2Fe2O3
As a matter of fact, there are two types of 'iron' : Ferrous(Fe2+) and Ferric(Fe3+)You should say either Ferric Oxide(Fe2O3) or Ferrous Oxide(FeO).Ferric Oxide balanced equation : 4Fe + 3O2 ===> 2Fe2O3Ferrous Oxide balanced equation : 2Fe + O2 ===> 2FeO
The chemical symbol for iron is Fe and for oxygen is O.
4Fe + 3O2 2Fe2O3
In the balanced chemical equation 4Fe + 3O2 -> 2Fe2O3, the coefficient in front of iron (Fe) is 4.
The chemical reaction for rusting steel is: 4Fe (s) + 3O2 (g) -> 2Fe2O3 (s). This equation shows that iron reacts with oxygen in the presence of water to form iron oxide (rust).
