FeO is named iron(II) oxide, as iron has a +2 charge, and Fe2O3 is named iron(III) oxide, as iron has a +3 charge. These names reflect the oxidation states of iron in the compounds. ;
FeO is named iron(II) oxide, and Fe₂O₃ is named iron(III) oxide. These names reflect the oxidation states of iron in the compounds, which are +2 for FeO and +3 for Fe₂O₃. This helps in understanding their chemical behavior and properties.
