Question

The compound Fe2O3 contains how many atoms?

Answer 1

5 atoms 2 iron and 3 oxygen I hope this helps

Answer 2

Explanation:

The given compound is $Fe_{2}O_{3}$ and it contains atoms of iron and oxygen.

Number of atoms of different element present in the given formula are as follows.

Number of iron atoms = 2

Number of oxygen atoms = 3

Thus, total number of atoms present in $Fe_{2}O_{3}$ are as follows.

             Total atoms present = number of Fe atoms + number of O atoms

                                                = 2 + 3

                                                = 5

Hence, we can conclude that there are total 5 atoms in a $Fe_{2}O_{3}$.
