Chemistry-- please help!?
The question is:-
When iron (II) sulfate OR iron (III) chloride reacts with sodium hydroxide, an iron hydroxide is formed. What evidence suggests that iron (II) hydroxide and iron (III) hydroxide are actually different substances.
Regards and Thanks.

*) iron (II) sulfate + sodium hydroxide
FeSO4 + 2NaOH ---> Fe(OH)2 + Na2SO4
*) iron (III) chloride + sodium hydroxide
FeCl3 + 3NaOH ---> Fe(OH)3 + 3NaCl
------
Fe(OH)2=iron (II) hydroxide
Fe(OH)3=iron (III) hydroxide
So it's different, isn't it?
