What is formed when you leave iron  (II) sulfate in plain air?

What is formed when you leave iron (II) sulfate in plain air?

It was the question I foundWhat is formed when you leave iron(II) sulfate in textbook. Assumingplain air?

Knowing that iron(II) is easily oxidised to iron(III), and assuming that the reactive component of air is oxygen, I solved it this way:

$$\ce{FeSO4 + O2 -> Fe2O3 + SO2}$$

But in my textbook it's given that iron  (III) sulphatesulfate, $\ce{Fe2(SO4)3}$, is formed $\ce{Fe2(SO4)3}$.

Or does Is this because $\ce{Fe2O3 + SO2}$ react to form $\ce{Fe2(SO4)3}$. How is that? Am I wrong? I find formation of iron (III) sulphate highly doubtful.

What is formed when you leave Ferrousiron (II) Sulfatesulfate in Plain Airplain air

It was the question I found in textbook. Assuming that air is oxygen I solved it this way:

$\ce{FeSO4 + O2 -> Fe2O3 + SO2}$

But in my textbook it's given that Ferric Sulphateiron (III) sulphate is formed $\ce{Fe2(SO4)3}$.

Or does $\ce{Fe2O3 + SO2}$ form $\ce{Fe2(SO4)3}$. How is that? Am I wrong? I find formation of Ferric Sulphateiron (III) sulphate highly doubtful.
