The ionic compound of Fe2O3 is iron(III) oxide. In this compound, iron has a +3 charge (Fe3+) and oxygen has a -2 charge (O2-), leading to the formula Fe2O3.
Fe2O3. Iron three contains three electrons in the outer orbit and Oxygen has two slots empty in the outer orbit, so in order for the compound to combine, three oxygen atoms are needed for two Fe atoms, and then the compound is neutral.
Fe2O3, also known as iron(III) oxide, is an ionic compound. It is composed of iron ions (Fe3+) and oxide ions (O2-), which are held together by ionic bonds formed through the transfer of electrons from iron to oxygen.
No, Fe2O3 is not a metalloid. It is a compound made up of iron (a metal) and oxygen (a non-metal).
The oxide Fe2O3 has 3 oxygen atoms in the molecule.
2- iron and oxygen. Should be written as Fe2 O3
