Iron forms rust, expressed as: Fe2O3. Using information from the Periodic Table, what is the mass of one mole of Fe2O3?




A.



71.85 g



B.



143.70 g



C.



159.70 g



D.



319.40 g

Verified Answer :

The answer is C, 159.70g

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Atomic mass of iron =  55.845 g/mol

Atomic mass of oxygen = 15.999 g/mol

Mass of 1 mole of iron(III) oxide , \(Fe_2O_3\):

\(2\times 55.845 g/mol+3\times 15.999 g/mol=159.687 g/mol\)

159.687 g/mol ≈ 159.70 g/mol

159.70 g/mol is the mass of one mole of iron(III) oxide.
