Solution

The total number of electrons in one formula unit of FeSO4.7H2O
=(26+16+4×8+14×1+7×8)=144

So, 144×6.022×1023 electrons are present in 1 mole of FeSO4.7H2O.

Hence, 4.336×1026 electrons will be present in
=4.336×10261.44×6.022×1023 moles of FeSO4.7H2O

=5 moles of FeSO4.7H2O

From the formula unit :
1 mole of FeSO4.7H2O contains 11 moles of O atoms.

Thus, 5 moles of FeSO4.7H2O will contains 55 moles of O atoms.
