Question 98

A sample of a reddish-brown rust deposit formed on an industrial steel beam is analyzed. The analysis reveals that the sample consists solely of iron and oxygen.

A 16.0 g sample of this oxide is found to contain 11.2 g of iron atoms, with the remainder being oxygen atoms.

Calculate the empirical formula of this iron oxide compound. (Relative atomic masses, ArA_{\text{r}}Ar​: Fe=56\text{Fe} = 56Fe=56, O=16\text{O} = 16O=16)
