Hello,

My name is Roman Luckett, I'm a high school student who has a passion for writing, chemistry, nuclear/aerospace engineering and more. I write articles about some of the stuff I do in my free time.

How to Synthesize Potassium Ferrioxalate

This is a basic guide to synthesizing potassium ferrioxalate for home chemists, using easily sourced/made materials. There are other (more reliable) methods out there that use catalysts like barium sulfate, but this method just uses rust, oxalic acid, and potassium carbonate.
