Short description

Chemical name: iron sulphate Other names: ferrous sulfate, iron (II) sulphate, Ferrous sulfate, Green vitriol, Iron vitriol, Copperas, Melanterite, Szomolnokite Formula: FeSO4 Appearance: anhydrous iron sulphate is white, holding a yellow water, holding 7 green water Melting point: 70 ° C Molecular weight: 151,908 g / mol Density: 2.84 g / cm³ Dissolved in: Water Density: 1,898 Package: 25kg / bag Origin: China Applications: Together with other iron compounds, ferrous sulfate is used to fortify foods and to treat and prevent iron deficiency anemia. Ferrous sulfate was used in the manufacture of inks, most notably iron gall ink. Iron (II) sulfate is sold as ferrous sulfate, a soil amendment[20] for lowering the pH of a high alkaline soil so that plants can access the soil's nutrients. Ferrous sulfate is sometimes added to the cooling water flowing through the brass tubes of turbine condensers to form a corrosion-resistant protective coating.

Description

Iron(II) sulfate (British English: iron(II) sulphate) or ferrous sulfate denotes a range of salts with the formula Fe SO₄·xH₂O. These compounds exist most commonly as the heptahydrate (x = 7) but are known for several values of x.

Industrially, ferrous sulfate is mainly used as a precursor to other iron compounds. It is a reducing agent, and as such is useful for the reduction of chromate in cement to less toxic Cr(III) compounds. Historically ferrous sulfate was used in the textile industry for centuries as a dye fixative. It is used historically to blacken leather and as a constituent of ink. The preparation of sulfuric acid ('oil of vitriol') by the distillation of green vitriol (Iron(II) sulfate) has been known for at least 700 years.
