What Is The Formula For Iron (III) Oxide?
The formula for Iron oxide is Fe2O3. The symbols of iron and oxygen are Fe and O respectively. The valency of Iron in Ferric oxide is +3 while in Ferrous oxide is +2. On the other hand, the valency of Oxygen is -2. Putting the valency of Iron under oxygen and putting the valency of oxygen under Iron, makes the complete formula of Iron oxide.
