Iron (III) chloride describes the inorganic compounds with the formula Fe Cl 3 (H 2 O) x. Also called ferric chloride, these compounds are some of the most important and commonplace compounds of iron. They are available both in anhydrous and in hydrated forms, which are both hygroscopic. They feature iron in its +3 oxidation state.

It is used to treat sewage, industrial waste, to purify water, as an etching agent for engraving circuit boards, and in the manufacture of other chemicals. Iron trichloride is an iron coordination entity. It has a role as a Lewis acid and an astringent. See also: Ferric cation (has active moiety); Ferric chloride, solution (annotation moved to).
