2 Fe(OH)2 + 8 NO2 → 2 Fe(NO3)3 + N2 + 2 H2O

This is an acid-base reaction (neutralization): Fe(OH)2 is a base, NO2 is an acid.

This is an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction:

2 NIV + 8 e- → 2 N0 (reduction)

6 NIV - 6 e- → 6 NV (oxidation)

2 FeII - 2 e- → 2 FeIII (oxidation)

NO2 is an oxidizing agent, NO2 is a reducing agent, Fe(OH)2 is a reducing agent.
