The ferric thiocyanate solution is blood red in color, and the intensity of its color is proportional to the amount of complex in solution. The complex is formed according to the reaction: Fe3+ + SCN- ...

In this experiment you synthesized an iron complex from the reaction of ferric chloride (FeCl 3) with potassium oxalate (K 2 C 2 O 4). This reaction is shown below. In this reaction the ferric ion (Fe ...
