Standard potential: - o.44 V (Fe2+/ Fe); 0.77 V ...

Density: 7.8 g.cm-3 at 20°C

Melting point: 1536 °C

Ionic radius: 0.076 nm (+2); 0.064 nm (+3)

Answer 2

well there are a few different features such as the silver-grey metallic appearance, capable malleability, effective conductivity and lustrous shine !
