Ferrate(VI) is the inorganic anion with the chemical formula [FeO 4] 2−.It is photosensitive, contributes a pale violet colour to compounds and solutions containing it and is one of the strongest water-stable oxidizing species known.
Potassium ferrioxalate contains the iron(III) complex [Fe(C 2 O 4) 3] 3−. In chemistry, iron(III) or ferric refers to the element iron in its +3 oxidation state. Ferric chloride is an alternative name for iron(III) chloride (FeCl 3). The adjective ferrous is used instead for iron(II) salts, containing the cation Fe 2+.
"Group 6" is the new IUPAC name for this group; the old style name was "group VIB" in the old US system (CAS) or "group VIA" in the European system (old IUPAC). Group 6 must not be confused with the group with the old-style group crossed names of either VIA (US system, CAS) or VIB (European system, old IUPAC). That group is now called group 16.
The Fe 3+ ion in ferric citrate (as in many iron(III) carboxylates) is reduced by exposure to light, [8] especially blue and ultraviolet, to Fe 2+ (ferrous) ion with concomitant oxidation of the carboxyl group adjacent to the hydroxyl, yielding carbon dioxide and acetonedicarboxylate: 2 Fe 3+ + R 2-C(OH)-CO − 2 → 2 Fe 2+ + R 2-C=O + H + + CO 2
Ferric acetate is the iron compound with the formula Fe 3 O(O 2 CCH 3) 6 (H 2 O) 3]O 2 CCH 3. This red brown solid is the acetate salt of the coordination complex [Fe 3 O(OAc) 6 (H 2 O) 3] + (OAc − is CH 3 CO 2 −). Commonly, the salt is known as "basic iron acetate". [2] The formation of the red-brown complex was once used as a test for ...
The adjective ferrous or the prefix ferro-is often used to specify such compounds, as in ferrous chloride for iron(II) chloride (FeCl 2). The adjective ferric is used instead for iron(III) salts, containing the cation Fe 3+. The word ferrous is derived from the Latin word ferrum, meaning "iron".
Potassium ferricyanide is the chemical compound with the formula K 3 [Fe(CN) 6]. This bright red salt contains the octahedrally coordinated [Fe(CN) 6] 3− ion. [2] It is soluble in water and its solution shows some green-yellow fluorescence. It was discovered in 1822 by Leopold Gmelin. [3] [4]
Ferric oxalate, also known as iron(III) oxalate, refers to inorganic compounds with the formula Fe 2 (C 2 O 4) 3 (H 2 O) x but could also refer to salts of [Fe(C 2 O 4) 3] 3-. Fe 2 (C 2 O 4) 3 (H 2 O) x are coordination polymers with varying degrees of hydration.
