X4O10
Let molar mass of X be y
molar mass =  4y + 10 x 16 = 4y+160

so, moles = 85.2 / (4y+160)

Moles of oxygen = 10 x [85.2 / (4y+160) ]
Mass of oxygen  = 16 x 10 x [85.2 / (4y+160) ]
which is 48.0

so, 48 = 16 x 10 x [85.2 / (4y+160) ]

Solve the equation to get y.

y = 31

To three significant digit,what is the mass percentage of iron in the compound Fe2O3​
svlad2 [7]

69.9%

Explanation:

To find the mass percentage of iron in the compound in Fe₂O₃, we would go ahead to express the given molar mass of the iron to that of the compound.

 Mass percentage  = \frac{molar mass of Fe}{Molar mass of Fe_{2}O_{3}  }  x 100

Molar mass of Fe = 55.85g/mol

Molar mass of O = 16g/mol

Molar mass of Fe₂O₃ = 2(55.85) + 3(16) = 159.7‬g/mol

Mass percentage  = \frac{2(55.85)}{159.7}  x  100   = 69.94% = 69.9%

1.)What is a chemical reaction?
harina [27]
A chemical reaction is a process that leads to the chemical transformation of one set of chemical substances to another. A chemical reaction is usually accompanied by easily observed physical effects, such as the emission of heat and light, the formation of a precipitate, the evolution of gas, or a color change. Photosynthesis is an example from daily life
