The chemical reaction for rusting of iron is as follows:

4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3

Initial mass of iron =100 gm

Mass of Fe2O3 = 110 gm

Mass of oxide = 10 gm

Now, from equation,

To form 2 moles of rust it requires 3 moles of O2 requires 4 moles of Fe

10/32 moles will use

equals space 4 over 3 cross times 10 over 32 space moles space of space Fe

equals 40 over 96

equals space 0.4166 space mole space of space Fe

 

Mass of Fe reacted = 0.4166×56

                            =23.33%
