What is the formula of the compound iron III phosphide?
FeP. Iron(III) means that the iron has an oxidation state of 3, and could be considered to be Fe3+. Phosphides generally contain P3- and this is true for the group1 and group 2 metals There is one iron phosphide Fe3P used as a semiconductor, so it is not ionic! You cannot use oxidation number nomenclature on that compound you have to go the "triiron monophosphide" route instead. I do not think there is actually a compound with the formula FeP. Naming phosphides using the oxidation state nomenclature is risky, phosphorus forms many different "ions" and also forms binary compounds where the phosphorus is "interstitial" .
