Allotropes are different forms of the same element, where the atoms are arranged in different ways. Iron has several allotropes, mainly distinguished by their crystal structures and physical properties. The primary allotropes of iron are: 1. **Alpha Iron (α-iron)**: Also known as ferrite, it is the most stable form of iron at room temperature. It has a body-centered cubic (BCC) crystal structure and is magnetic (ferromagnetic).
