14% Fe

The formula for iron ammonium sulfate hexahydrate is (NH4)2Fe(SO4)2·6H2O, which can also be written as FeH20N2O14S2.

To determine the percentage of Fe in the compound, divide the mass of Fe by the mass of the compound and multiply by 100. The molar mass of Fe is 56 g/mol. The molar mass of the compound is 392 g/mol. There is only one Fe atom in the formula, so the mass of Fe is 56 g/mol.

%Fe = (56 g/mol)/(392 g/mol) x 100 = 14%
