A macromolecule of iron has molar mass 2800 amu, it contains 8% iron by mass. The number of iron atom in one formula unit of the macromolecule is:

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
4

Number of iron atoms in one formula unit of compound `= (%)/(100) xx ("Molecular mass")/("Atomic mass") = (8)/(100) xx (2800)/(56) =4`
