Answer:
56
Explanation:
The mass number of an atom is a sum of its number of protons and neutrons. Iron (Fe) has an atomic number of 26. This means that it has 26 protons. Since we know it has 26 protons and are told it has 30 neutrons. The mass number of this atom of Iron is 26+30 = 56

Let's go through each of the answers and think about why they work or don't work.
Chemical forms compounds.
Nuclear changes the element completely. We're going to use the sun as an example. The sun is in a state of plasma. It's really hot and has all these particles hitting into each other. The nucleus' of atoms are hitting into each other forming larger elements. It's real crazy. Nuclear is not correct.
Physical cannot form a compound.
The molecular formula of quinine is C20H<span>24N2</span>O<span>2. For every 1 mole of quinine molecule, there are 20 moles of carbon. Simply multiplying 6.0 moles by 20, we get, 120 moles.
Therefore, there are 120 moles of carbon in 6.0 moles of quinine.</span>
