This question is about reactions of iron.
Iron can form iron (III) oxide with a chemical formula of Fe2O3.
How many atoms are shown in the formula Fe2O3?
How many atoms are shown in the formula for iron (II) hydroxide, Fe(OH)2?
How many atoms are present in iron (II) nitrate, Fe(NO3)2?
Recent discoveries in the fields of Geology and Seismology have established the potential existence of a previously undiscovered iron oxide compound, FeO2.
This iron oxide requires very high pressures and temperatures to form.
In theory, FeO2 could be formed by the reaction of iron and oxygen, under suitable conditions, as follows.
Fe + O2 → FeO2
How does this reaction demonstrate the law of conservation of mass?
