Fe forms two chlorides, FeCI2 and FeCI3....

Fe forms two chlorides, `FeCI_2 and FeCI_3`. Does Fe have the same value of equivalent weight in its compounds?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether iron (Fe) has the same value of equivalent weight in its compounds FeCl2 and FeCl3, we need to understand the concept of equivalent weight and how it relates to the oxidation states of iron in these compounds. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Oxidation States**: - In FeCl2, iron is in the +2 oxidation state (Fe^2+). - In FeCl3, iron is in the +3 oxidation state (Fe^3+). ...

    Which of the following sets of compounds.have their molecular weight and equivalent weight the same?

    Weight of oxygen in Fe_(2)O_(3) and FeO in the simple ratio for the same amount of iron is:

    The equivalent weight of a species if acts as oxidant or reductant should be derived by : Eq. weight of oxidant or reductant = ("Mol. wt. of oxidant or reductant")/{("Number of electrons lost or gained by one"),("moleculae of oxidant or reductant"):} During chemical reactions, equal equivalents of one species react with same number of equivalents of other species giving same number of equivalent of products. However this is not true for reactants if they react in terms of moles. Also Molarity can be converted to normality by multiplying the molarity with valence factor or 'n' factor.
