Explanation:
Iron exhibits two stable oxidation states, +2 and +3 states. The difference between FeO and Fe2O3 is that, in FeO, Fe is in the +2 oxidation state while in Fe2O3, Fe is in the +3 oxidation state
In FeO, iron looses two electrons which are gained by oxygen as follows;
Fe^2+ + O^2- -----> FeO
In Fe2O3, Fe looses six electrons while oxygen has gained six electrons as shown;
2Fe^3+ + 3O^2- ------>Fe2O3
89.1% Au
The molar mass of Au2O3 is 2(196.97) + 3(16.00) = 441.94 g/mol
The mass percent of Au is therefore 2(196.97) / 441.94, which is 393.94/441.94 = 0.891 —> 89.1%
<span>The mass number of an ion is calculated by adding the neutrons and electrons together. In this case 159+107=266. However, since this ion has a +1 charge, you must add 1 to the electrons. This would give a total mass of 267.</span>
