Description

Ferrous sulfate appears as a greenish or yellow-brown crystalline solid. Density 15.0 lb /gal. Melts at 64°C and loses the seven waters of hydration at 90°C. The primary hazard is the threat to the environment. Immediate steps should be taken to limit its spread to the environment.

Rotatable Bond Count

Stability

In moist air, ferrous sulfate rapidly oxidizes and becomes coated with brownish-yellow ferric sulfate... . The rate of oxidation is increased by the addition of alkali or by exposure to light.
