Whether water is frozen, in a gaseous state, or is a liquid, it is still H2O. So the chemical composition does stay the same.
Answer is (3) protons and neutrons.
(P.S. The outer part contains the electrons)
First we need to calculate the number of moles of FeS
:
number of moles = mass (grams) / molecular mass (g/mol)
number of moles of FeS
= 198.2/120 = 1.65 moles
From the chemical reaction we deduce that:
if 4 moles of FeS
produces 8 moles of SO
then 1.65 moles of FeS
produces X moles of SO
X = (1.65×8)/4 = 3.3 moles of SO
Now we can calculate the mass of SO
:
mass (grams) = number of moles × molecular mass (grams/mole)
mass of SO
= 3.3×64 = 211.2 g
