Are iron(ii) chloride and iron(iii) chloride two forms of the same compound, or are they two completely different compounds?

are iron(ii) oxide and iron(iii) oxide two forms of the same compound, or are they two completely different compounds?

I'm gonna say they are both different compounds. (for both questions)

Explanation:

B/c they both contain different number of elements in their structure. They are not isomers of each other. Isomers are molecules that have the same molecular formula, but have a different arrangement of the atoms in space For them to be isomers they would have to have same elements in same number (i.e. same molecular formula) but Iron(ii) chloride, and Iron (III) chloride do not have the same number of chlorine atoms in their Lewis structure.

Both are different compounds

FeCl₂ ≠ FeCl₃

Fe₂O₃ ≠ FeO

Explanation:

The difference lies in the number of oxidation so it can be said that they are different compounds, in iron oxides the difference is in color. FeO is black and iron (III) oxide is red.

Iron chloride III is the oxidized form of iron chloride II. It is a toxic salt of green color while iron chloride II, is more orange, red

the answer is b. dilution
