Based on your knowledge of oxygen ion and that Iron can exist as a +2 or a +3 ion. In the formula FeO, what is the charge of the Fe ion?

+2

+3

Oxygen ions always have the charge of -2. Since Fe is in the transition metal stage, it doesn't have a specific set of ions unless specifically shown. In the equation FeO, we would have to have a +2 charge when equalling the two atoms together. So when combines the charges would look like:

[tex]Fe_{+2} + O_{-2} = FeO[/tex]

I am happy to help with any other questions you might have, and I will continue to work to providing the best answers for you :)
