Mar 22, 2015 · The electronic configuration of Fe is $\ce { [Ar] 3d^6 4s^2}$. So after removing two electrons the configuration becomes: $\ce { [Ar] 3d^6}$ But why can't the electrons rearrange …

Aug 27, 2017 · 15 Diiron nonacarbonyl, $\ce { [Fe2 (CO)9]}$, is often depicted with an Fe–Fe bond as shown at the left-hand side: The Fe—Fe bond is usually invoked in order to (1) explain the observed …

Dec 9, 2015 · I would like to know the differences between Fe3+ and Fe2+ ions. I'm guessing they must differ in reactivity but I'm not sure how. Also, is there a way that we can observed the differences

Oct 15, 2019 · Why does Fe(III) form octahedral coordination complexes if it has 5 electrons in its d-orbitals? I understand that Fe(II) has 6 electrons in its d-orbitals and 6 lone pairs from 6 ligands as …

Aug 8, 2015 · Iron(II) sulfate (ferrous sulfate) is a salt that, in an aqueous solution, dissolves and yields $\\ce{Fe^{2+}(aq)}$ and $\\ce{SO4^{2-}(aq)}$. It then decomposes to ferric sulfate shortly thereafter. ...

Sep 16, 2015 · Not in igneous rocks. Most iron there, in silicate minerals throughout the deep crust and mantle, is Fe (II). Need to weather the rocks and expose the iron to an oxidizing atmosphere to get …

Sep 16, 2021 · I need to prepare a solution of Ferrous Iron (Fe2+). This solution will be used to test a water filtration system by simulating the Ferrous Iron that is sometimes present in well water.

Dec 12, 2016 · It is not clear what do you mean stable. Iron (III) salts generally form an oxo-hydroxo precipitate unless some complexation or other tricks going on. From that point of view, it doesn't …

Dec 12, 2024 · I'm taking a chemistry course right now. I've learned about electron configuration and ionization and wondered why iron doesn't "like" ionizing to a 1+ state. When iron goes to …

Aug 30, 2015 · But when 2 electrons are to be removed to form the Fe2+ ion, the electrons are not removed from the 3d orbitals. 3d belongs to the 3rd energy level which becomes an inner filled …
