What is the chemical formula for iron(2) oxide

Chemistry
1 answer:
solmaris [256]3 years ago
7 0
Iron (II) oxide is composed of iron with an oxidation number of +2 (shown by the II after iron) and an oxygen that has an oxidation number of -2 (oxygen almost always has an oxidation state of -2).  Since the anion and cation both have a charge of +or- 2, they bond with each other with a 1 to 1 ratio and the formula should be FeO

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

Ksju [112]

Answer:

A. It is exothermic

Explanation:

Combustion is a chemical reaction in which a substance combines with oxygen present in air to produce carbon (iv) oxide and water as well release  heat and light energy.Combustion is an exothermic process.

An exothermic reaction releases energy in the form of heat to the surroundings. The energy required to break bonds in the reactants is less than the energy required to form new bonds in the products in an exothermic reaction.

From the given options;

A. It is exothermic is determinable since the reaction is a combustion reaction

B. The bond making energy is more than 600 kJ is not certain because the mass of the wood being burnt is not given. Also, wood is not composed of a specific element that would be taking part in the reaction, rather it is composed of various substances.

C. It is endothermic. is wrong because combustion of wood is exothermic.

D. The bond breaking energy is more than 600 kJ is not certain because the mass of the wood being burnt is not given. Also, wood is not composed of a specific element that would be taking part in the reaction, rather is composed of many substances.
