The non-stoichiometric compound Fe_0.94O is formed when some Fe^(+2) ions are replaced by Fe^(+3) ions. What is the percentage of Fe^(+3) ions in this ionic lattice ?
The non- stoichiometric compound Fe_(0.94)O is formed when x% of Fe^(2+) ions are replaced by as many 2//3 Fe^(3+) ions The value of x is:
Analyses shows that FeO has a non-stoichiometric composition with formula Fe_(0.95)O_(1.00) . Give reason.
Mole percentage of Fe^(2+) in a non-stoichiometric oxide of iroon, Fe_(0.96)O , will be:
