Why is FeO(s) not formed in stoichiometric composition ? |
| Answer» This is because some `Fe^(2+)` ions in FeO are replaced by `Fe^(3+)` ions. As `3 Fe^(2+)` ions are replaced by `2 Fe^(3+)` ions to maintain electrical neutrality , there is less amount of metal as compared to stoichiometric proportion. | |
