TABLE 24.1 Iron Oxide Compounds at Different Oxidation States of Iron  

In this chapter, spectroscopy techniques as a tool to characterize the ferrates(IV, V, and V) are presented. Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy, which is able to distinguish easily between various oxidation states of iron in compounds, is described in detail.
