This reaction gives the methanol solvate of the dichloride, which upon heating in a vacuum at about 160 °C converts to anhydrous FeCl 2. [4] The net reaction is shown: Fe + 2 HCl → FeCl 2 + H 2. FeBr 2 and FeI 2 can be prepared analogously. An alternative synthesis of anhydrous ferrous chloride is the reduction of FeCl 3 with chlorobenzene: [5]
A similar reagent but moistened induces hydrolysis or epimerization reactions. [49] On alumina, ferric chloride has been shown to accelerate ene reactions. [50] When pretreated with sodium hydride, iron(III) chloride gives a hydride reducing agent that convert alkenes and ketones into alkanes and alcohols, respectively. [51]
Ferroxyl indicator, or rust indicator, is a solution containing potassium hexacyanoferrate(III), phenolphthalein and sodium chloride. It turns blue in the presence of Fe 2+ ions, and pink in the presence of hydroxide (OH −) ions. It can be used to detect metal oxidation, and is often used to detect rusting in various situations.
A chemical reaction is a process that leads to the chemical transformation of one set of chemical substances to another. [1] When chemical reactions occur, the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is accompanied by an energy change as new products are generated.
The chemical garden relies on most transition metal silicates being insoluble in water and colored. When a metal salt, such as cobalt chloride, is added to a sodium silicate solution, it will start to dissolve. It will then form insoluble cobalt silicate by a double displacement reaction. This cobalt silicate is a semipermeable membrane.
When metallic iron (oxidation state 0) is placed in a solution of hydrochloric acid, iron(II) chloride is formed, with release of hydrogen gas, by the reaction Fe 0 + 2 H + → Fe 2+ + H 2. Iron(II) is oxidized by hydrogen peroxide to iron(III), forming a hydroxyl radical and a hydroxide ion in the process. This is the Fenton reaction.
The formation of Fe(III)-EDTA (FeY) − can be described as follows: FeSO 4 ∙7H 2 O + K 2 H 2 Y + 1/4 O 2 → K[FeY(H 2 O)]. H 2 O + KHSO 4 + 5.5 H 2 O (1) [8]. Iron chelate has also been used as a bait in the chemical control of slugs, snails and slaters in agriculture in Australia and New Zealand.
The sodium fusion test, or Lassaigne's test, is used in elemental analysis for the qualitative determination of the presence of foreign elements, namely halogens, nitrogen, and sulfur, in an organic compound. It was developed by J. L. Lassaigne. [1] The test involves heating the sample with sodium metal, "fusing" it with the sample. A variety ...
