How do you make reduced iron? | Bookmark | ||||||
I keep seeing references to using reduced iron but I can't find how to make it anywhere. Does anybody know? |

I believe this refers to how pure iron is obtained. Iron is usually found in nature as the oxide. If this is heated to high temperature and reacted with hydrogen gas, the products are iron and steam. The mass of iron oxide has been 'reduced' (the original meaning of the term), and the oxidation state of the iron has been reduced from +3 to zero. Back to the Primitive |

Take a solution of ferrous oxide and place in a electrolytic cell and collect your Fe at the cathode. |

My explanation would only relate to iron that is labeled 'reduced with hydrogen'. Anyway, reduced iron simply refers to metallic iron obtained from iron-containing compounds.[EDIT] would you believe my Iron Reduced With Hydrogen bottle also says 'Pharmaceutical Grade'? Hmm..Maybe its used by people with an iron-poor diet..HAAAAHAAAA..ok bad joke. Back to the Primitive |

Take a solution of ferrous oxide If you don't know the answer then you shouldn't just make stuff up. |

(To clarify what terbium wrote, Ferrous oxide is an insoluble compound) |

could it be precipitated from a FeCl2 solution using Al, and then remove the Al with a NaOH solution? i know you can precipitate it using zinc, then get rid of the zinc using NaOH solution, forming zinc oxide or hydroxide i forget which now, leaving behind your elemental Fe. right?
