What is the oxidation state of iron in FeO4?

Solutions

Expert Solution

let x = oxidation number Fe

x + ( 4 x -2 )= -2
x - -8 = -2
x = +6
oxidation number Fe in FeO4 2- = +6

The experimentally known highest oxidation state of iron has been determined to be Fe(VI) so far. Here we report a combined matrix-isolation infrared spectroscopic and theoretical study of two interconvertible iron oxide anions: a dioxoiron peroxide complex [(η2-O2)FeO2] with a C2v-structure and a tetroxide FeO4 with a D2d tetrahedral structure, which are formed by co-condensation of laser-ablated iron atoms and electrons with O2/Ar mixtures at 4 K. Quantum chemistry theoretical studies indicate that the Jahn–Teller distorted tetroxide FeO4 anion is a d1 species with hereto the highest iron formal oxidation state Fe(VII).

The oxidation state of a transition metal can be determined by looking at the ligands bonded to the metal. Every bond to a transition metal will increase the oxidation state of that metal by +1.
The oxidation state of a transition metal can be determined by looking at the ligands bonded to the metal. Every bond to a transition metal will increase the oxidation state of that metal by +1. For example in CoBr2, there are two bromines bonded to the cobalt, and the cobalt will have a +2 oxidation state (Co2+). When neutral ligands (NH3, PPh3, etc.) are coordinated to the metal, they do not change the oxidation state of the metal. For example...
