Question
Which of the following oxide(s) of iron would be obtained on prolonged reaction of iron with steam?
Options
FeO
Fe2O3
Fe3O4
Fe2O3 and Fe3O4
Solution
Fe3O4
Explanation -
Iron does not react with cold or hot water, but steam is passed over a red hot iron, it reacts to form iron (II, III) oxide and hydrogen gas.
