Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

These atomic masses are approximate.

Find the mass of 1 mol Fe2O3

2*Fe = 2* 56 = 112

3*O = 3 * 16 = 48

Molar mass = 160

1 mol Fe2O3 = 160 grams

x mol Fe3O3 = 200

1/x = 160/200 Cross Multiply

160x = 200 Divide by 160

x = 200 / 160

x = 1.25 mols

When you do the problem (which you should), you will get a slightly different answer. Buy my answer should guide you about how to do the problem. Your periodic table will be more accurate than the one I have used.
