what is the name of fool gold?
Hello Shikha,
Fool's Gold happens to be another name for Iron Pyrite, or more accurately, Iron Disulfide. It is composed of one Iron molecule and two Sulphur molecules.
During the World War II it was mined to produce sulfuric acid, an industrial chemical. Today, it is used in car batteries, appliances, jewelry, and machinery. Although fool's gold can be a disappointing find, it is often discovered near sources of copper and gold.
Hope this helps you. We wish you the best for your future endeavours!
