    work out moles of Fe2O3

    moles = mass / molar mass

    moles Fe2O3 = 150 g / 159.7 g/mol

    = 0.9393 moles Fe2O3

    Each Fe2O3 has 2 moles of Fe in it

    Therefore moles Fe = 2 x 0.9393 moles

    = 1.8785 moles Fe

    mass = molar mass x moles

    mass (Fe) = 1.8785 mol x 55.85 g/mol

    = 104.92 g

    = 105 g
