  • Iron(II) Bromide (FeBr2): Calculating Iron Atoms
    You're asking about FeBr2, which is the chemical formula for iron(II) bromide. To figure out how many iron atoms are in a molecule of FeBr2, look at the subscripts in the formula:

    * Fe has a subscript of 1 (even though it's not written).

    * Br has a subscript of 2.

    This means there is one iron atom (Fe) and two bromine atoms (Br) in each molecule of FeBr2.
