Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Given that the formula of the compound is Fe2O3, if a coefficient of 2 is placed in front of the formula, that is, if we write 2Fe2O3 . Then;
The number of Fe atoms becomes 2 *2 = 4
The number of oxygen atoms becomes 2*3 = 6
That is why the total number of iron atoms were written down as 4.

This question is incomplete but the completed question is below
Which Of These Species Is Most Likely To Be A Lewis Acid And Is Also Least Likely To Be A Brønsted Acid? (A) NH4⁺ (B) BF₃ (C) H₂O (D) OH⁻
The correct option is B
Explanation:
A lewis acid is a substance that accepts (or is capable of accepting) a pair of electrons. For example BF₃, while a lewis base is a substance that donates (or is capable of donating) a pair of electrons. For example OH⁻.
If we take a look at the boron (B) in BF₃, it has 3 electrons on it's outermost shell, each of which are bonded to flourine and can still accept a pair of electrons (lone pair). <u>This makes it very likely to be a lewis acid</u>.
Bronsted lowry acid is a substance that donates or can donate a proton or H⁺ (for example HCl) while bronsted lowry base is a substance that accepts or can accept a proton or H⁺ (for example NH₃).
<u>BF₃ cannot donate a proton or H⁺ hence it is least likely to be called a bronsted acid.</u>
Answer:
An electron is a negatively charged subatomic particle and a proton is a positively charged subatomic particle. Positive charge(s) attract negative charge(s) and vice versa. The proton and neutron stay together and attract one another to give the atom an overall charge of zero (neutral). Which is the charge of an atom. When there is an unequal number of protons and neutrons an ion is formed. If the number of protons are more than the electron, a positively charged ion called cation is formed. On the other hand, if the number of electrons are more than the protons a negatively charged ion called anion is formed.
