It would be: 4Fe + 3O2 2Fe2O3
Roman numerals are typically used in compound names to indicate the oxidation state of an element. This is necessary when the element can have multiple oxidation states and is written as a cation in the compound. For example, iron can exist in the +2 or +3 oxidation state, so the compound name "iron(II) chloride" specifies that it is the +2 oxidation state of iron.
That the charge of iron is +3 resulting in a formula of Fe2(SO4)3
8H+ + MnO4- + 5Fe2+--> 5Fe3+ + Mn2+ + 4H20
the answer is 2, my chemistry proffessor told me so. take it or leave it.
A. Fe^2+ ==> Fe^3+ + e- is an oxidation reactionB. Fe^3+ +e- ==> Fe^2+ is a reduction reactionC. Fe(s) ==> Fe(l) is neither an oxidation nor a reduction reaction. It is a phase change.D. Fe + 2e- ==> Fe^2+ is not a possible reaction.
+2 for Fe2+ ion
Iron has 2 oxidation states: Fe2+ and Fe3+ .
Fe2 + O2 --> 2FeO
Iron has 2 oxidation states: Fe2+ and Fe3+ .
The Fe2 plus electron configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d6.
The Mohr salt is more stable to oxidation of Fe2+ to Fe3+.
It turns blue in the presence of Fe2+, and can be used to check for possible oxidation/rust
Fe^(2+) its name is the iron cation in oxidation state '2' . When combined, with say a sulphate anion it would be named as 'Ferrous sulphate'. NB Ferric sulphate is iron cation in oxidation state '3'. ( Fe2(SO4)3 ). Note the difference in spelling for different oxidation states.

FeS + 2H+ -> Fe2+ + H2S
