When dissolved in water, iron(III) chloride undergoes hydrolysis and gives off heat in an exothermic reaction. The resulting brown, acidic, and corrosive solution is used as a flocculant in sewage treatment and drinking water production, and as an etchant for copper-based metals in printed circuit boards.ron(III) chloride hexahydrate consists of trans -[Fe(H 2 O) 4 Cl 2 ] + cationic complexes and chloride anions, with the remaining two H 2 O molecules embedded within the monoclinic crystal structure. Iron(III) chloride has a relatively low melting point and boils at around 315 Â°C.
Iron(III) chloride is a mild oxidising agent, for example, it is capable of oxidising copper(I) chloride to copper(II) chloride. FeCl 3 + CuCl â FeCl 2 + CuCl 2. It also reacts with iron to form iron(II) chloride: 2 FeCl 3 + Fe â 3 FeCl 2. Reducing agents such as hydrazine convert iron(III) chloride to complexes of iron(II).
