Salient Features of Iron Following are the major features of iron − Pure iron element is soft, ductile, and malleable. The boiling point of iron ranges between 1533 0 C and 2450 0 C. Iron easily gets attracted towards magnet. In dry air, iron remains inactive and does not react (with air); however, in moist air, it reacts and forms rust. Pure iron normally does not react with pure water; however, it reacts easily with ordinary of polluted water and rust forms. Iron reacts with halogen and Sulphur to form halide and sulphide accordingly. Occurrence of Iron The inner and outer cores of the earth are largely made up of iron and nickel. Most likely, iron is the most abundantly available element of the earth; however, it is ...
