Material Notes | Nutrient supplement Iron(II) sulfate (Br.E. iron(II) sulphate) or ferrous sulfate is the chemical compound with the formula FeSO4. Known since ancient times as copperas and as green vitriol, the blue-green heptahydrate is the most common form of this material. All iron sulfates dissolve in water to give the same aquo complex [Fe(H2O)6]2+, which has octahedral molecular geometry and paramagnetic. Together with other iron compounds, ferrous sulfate is used to fortify foods and to treat iron-deficiency anemia. (Wikipedia) |
