The overall objective of this study was to answer the basic question: What are the predominant species of iron (III) present under the conditions applying in water treatment processes? The phase of the study reported here was concerned with the hydrolysis of iron (III) in dilute aqueous solution, in the absence of complexing ligands other than perchlorate and hydroxide. Experimentally, this involved the determination of mass action quotients in solution ranging in iron (III) concentration from 10‐3 to 10‐5 M, the extremes of the concentration used in color and turbidity removal. The concentrations of specific hydrolysis species could then be calculated at various pHs and total iron (III) concentrations.
