Answers
Answer:
Ferrous carbonate is generally less bioavailable than ferrous sulphate; whilst for adult animals ferrous carbonate might be efficacious
Answer:
Differentiate between ferrous sulphide an ferrous carbonate.
FERROUS SULPHIDE
✓ Approximate chemical formula is FeS
✓ This compound can be prepared by heating of iron and sulphur
Fe + S --------> FeS.
✓ It is used in formation of hydrogen sulphide.
FERROUS CARBONATE
✓ chemical formula - FeCO₃
✓ It occurs naturally as mineral siderite.
used as an iron dietary for treatment of anemia.
✓ In CO2 corrosion, iron carbonate (FeCO3) scale can precipitate on a steel surface as a result of corrosion under certain environmental conditions of temperature, pH, flow velocity, and concentration of species, such as ferrous (Fe2+) and carbonate (CO3 2−) ions and combine to form FeCO₃.
