"ferrum" not "ferium" is the Latin name of iron, and an alternative name for this element, OR "fermium" not "ferium" is the name of an artificial element, named after the physicist and chemist Enrico Fermi. It is element 100. Its longest-lived isotope, Fm-257, has a half-life of 100 days.
Pyrite or chemically named: Iron(II) sulfide is FeS
The present term iron is derived from the Anglo-Saxon "isern", which, in turn, is derived from the Proto-Germanic "isarnan", which means "metal of the Gods". Iron was found mainly in meteoritic deposits, which fell from the sky, and they were therefore seen as originating from where the gods lived.
== == Being a layman, this answer will be a lay answer, until a chemist can improve it. The word rust is often used generically to describe the corrosion of several metals, BUT in actuality, ONLY IRON, or metal alloys containing IRON can rust. Most metal do corrode, but the term rust applys only to ferrous [iron] metals. The rusting of iron is an oxidation-reduction type of chemical reaction whereby oxygen combines with the outer region of the iron containing metal.
Mars is nicknamed the Red Planet because of the high levels of iron oxide on the surface of the planet. Iron Oxide is also known as rust.
Mohr Salt is Ammonium Iron (II) Sulphate, named after the German chemist Karl Friedrich Mohr.
Iron oxide is a compound, but I would add that a chemist would refer to it as either ferrous oxide or ferric oxide, depending upon the proportion of iron to oxygen.
