Solution

We know, 176 g of O atom = 17616 mol of O atoms
= 11 mol of O atoms
Again, from the formula unit of, FeSO4.7H2O
11 O atoms are present in one molecule of FeSO4.7H2O
So, 11 mol of O atoms are present in 1 mol of FeSO4.7H2O
Number of electrons in one formula unit of FeSO4.7H2O=26+16+11×8+14×1=144
Therefore, number of electrons in 1 mol of FeSO4.7H2O =144×6.022×1023
=8.67×1025
