It's a chloride of iron trivalent.
It is deliquable and hydrolyzes in humid air. When dissolved in water, it releases a lot of heat and produces a coffee-colored acidic solution.
The solution can etch metals made of copper or even stainless steel.
Anhydrous ferric chloride is a strong Lewis acid that can be used as a catalyst for organic synthesis.
The brown hexahydrate is a common commercial product of ferric chloride with the structure [FeCl2(H2O)4]Cl·2H2O (see chromium trichloride).
Heated to about 315℃, ferric chloride melts and becomes a gas.
The gas contains some Fe2Cl6 (see aluminum chloride), which gradually breaks down into ferrous chloride (FeCl2) and chlorine gas (Cl2).

Conclusion | According to GB/T1621-2008 inspection, it meets the first grade standard of anhydrous ferric chloride. |
The most common use is etching, especially printed circuit boards and stainless steel.
However, because it is difficult to recover and easy to pollute the environment,copper chloride is used now.
It is used in sewage treatment to remove heavy metals and phosphates from water.
In the laboratory, ferric chloride tests can be used to test phenols by preparing 1% ferric chloride solution and mixing it with sodium hydroxide until a small amount of FeO(OH) precipitates.
Strain the mixture.
Dissolve the test material in water, methanol or ethanol.
Add the mixture, if there is a significant color change, that is, the phenol or enol in the sample.
And we can use it to catalyze hydrogen peroxide to break it down into oxygen and water.
