Let us suppose that we have 1 mol of FeCr2O4. I'm going to use approximate masses because I have no idea what your periodic table will say. Just put in the exact masses from your periodic table.

Fe = 56
Cr*2 = 2*52 = 104
O4 = 4*16 = 64
===========
Total = 56 + 104 + 64 = 224
The % oxygen = (64 / 224) * 100 = 28.5 % but none of your answers match this. Perhaps you are talking about Fe2(Cr2O4)3 The brackets make all the difference in the world.

Without going through all the detail I did before, The molecular mass is
Fe * 2 = 112
Cr * 6 = 312
O * 12 = 192
The total molecular mass = 616

The % Oxygen = (192 / 616) * 100 = 31% roughly. That answer isn't there either. 

Let's wait and see who else answers.

A metal (M) forms an oxide with the formula MO. If the oxide contains 7.17 % O by mass, what is the identity of the metal?
Nataly_w [17]

The metal is lead, Pb.

One unit of the oxide contains one atom of O (16.00 u).

∴ Mass of oxide = 16.00 u O × (100 u MO/7.17 u O) = 223.15 u MO

Mass of M = mass of MO – mass of O = 223.15 u -16.00 u = 207.2 u

The only element with an atomic mass of 207.2 u is lead (Pb) and the formula of the oxide is PbO.

if an iron nail is placed in a glass of water the nail will sink. Is the density of iron smaller than or larger than the density
Gala2k [10]
It has  more density when it sinks because the water pushes away thats why people float they are less dense
