It would depend on your definition of percentage.
For example, if you were looking for percentage of atom count, you would count the atoms in the compound Fe2(SO4)3. You have 12 Oxygen, 3 Sulfur, and 2 Iron, leaving you with 3 sulfur out of 17 total atoms, or 3/17 or 0.176470588 (about 17.5%).
If, on the other hand, you are talking about percentage of mass, then you must calculate the mass of each element in the compound.
Iron's Atomic Mass is 55.847.
Sulfur's atomic mass is 32.066.
Oxygen's atomic mass is 15.999.
Multiply these by their respective ratios. Iron (55.847*2=111.694) Sulfur (32.066*3=96.198) Oxygen (15.999*12=191.988) Add them together to get (111.694+96.198+191.988=399.88)
Now, take the overall mass of the sulfur part (96.198) and divide it into the total mass (399.88). The answer is 96.198/399.88 or 0.24056717 or about 24%.

When crystals of feso4 are strongly heated the residue obtained is?
The residue obtained from heating crystals of FeSO4 (iron(II) sulfate) is Fe2O3 (iron(III) oxide) and SO2 (sulfur dioxide) gases. This is because the heating process causes the iron(II) sulfate to decompose, releasing water vapor, sulfur dioxide gas, and leaving iron(III) oxide as a solid residue.
