Other names... Sulfuric Acid?[edit]

Can people really call Iron(III)sulfate sulfuric acid and be right? I have a feeling this is wrong. JosephSzymborski (talk) 20:46, 6 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Gram formula mass?[edit]

Just wondering if there's a reference for that molar mass. I was just working it out by hand and got a slightly larger answer - by about 5 g/mol. Chances are its due to a loss of significant figures on my part, but I'm just curious. Codharris (talk) 18:53, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Uses of Iron(III) Sulfate[edit]

I've also read literature that indicates the use of Iron(III) Sulfate as providing the unique taste of pineapple? Should this be included in the article? Codharris (talk) 18:55, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Moss Out! brand of moss killer uses this chemical(ferric sulfate) to kill moss as a lawn treatment. The ferrous sulfate article mentions that as a use too but his article doesn't. I noticed that ferrous sulfate is used in a dry fertilizer mix (Vigoro) I have while the Moss Out! is a solution of iron(III) sulfate. 75.170.50.130 (talk) 00:40, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Mars Exploration" section sounds it came out of a fairy tale.[edit]

I propose that we make the "Mars Exploration" section sound a little more intelligible by replacing "insidious stuff" and "little robot" with something a little more grown-up sounding.Nunu10000 (talk) 23:02, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done: I have adapted my text. Thanks for the comment. Shinkolobwe (talk) 23:13, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe an update on the mars bots situation? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.7.130.162 (talk) 20:38, 10 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Solubility[edit]

Iron(III) sulfate is listed as insoluble. I believe it is soluble in water. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:602:8B80:A360:4186:8D95:94ED:C2E0 (talk) 21:45, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Broken external link[edit]

External link to the SDS is broken, domain is for sale. Wayback Machine has 2 snapshots that work, however. 96.92.84.81 (talk) 17:14, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
