Help me in finding the oxidation number of Fe in Fe 3 O 4 Help me in finding the oxidation number of Fe in Fe3O4
Help me in finding the oxidation number of Fe in Fe3O4
Solution: In Fe3O4 , each O has o.n = -2 and therefore we have: 4(-2) + 3 (o.n. of Fe ) = 0 or the o.n. of Fe = 8/3 Actually Fe3O4. known as magnetic oxide of iron is a stoichiometric mixture of ferrous (FeO) and ferric (Fe3O4 ) oxides and the value 8/3 for the oxidation number is the average of all the Fe atoms in the molecule.
