Final answer:

Fe^(3+) can be changed to Fe^(2+) by gaining one electron. This reduction occurs when Fe^(3+) gains an electron to form Fe^(2+).

Step-by-step explanation:

When changing Fe^(3+) to Fe^(2+), one electron is gained. The equation Fe^(3+) + e- -> Fe^(2+) represents this change. The Fe^(3+) ion loses one electron and is reduced to Fe^(2+). This reduction occurs when Fe^(3+) gains an electron and forms Fe^(2+).
