152g

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound given here is iron sulfate and it is represented as;

FeSO₄

The relative formula mass of the compound is determine by the addition of its component atomic masses and them expressed in grams

Atomic mass of Fe = 55.845

S = 32.065

O = 15.994

So;

Relative formula mass = 55.845 + 32.065 + 4(15.994) = 151.886g

Therefore, solution is 152g
