Question

Which form of iron is present in abundance in the atmosphere? Ferric or Ferrous?

Open in App
Solution

Dear student,

Iron is not present in the atmosphere and there is not a significant difference in the abundance of the ferric or ferrous ion.
Rather, we can compare the stability of the two ions. Ferric is more stable than the ferrous ion.
