For one mole of Fe2O3, you have 2 moles of Fe and 3 moles of O.

First work out the mass ratio of Fe:O in a mole or just a molecule of Fe2O3.
It is 55.845 x 2 : 16 x 3 = 111.69:48 = 2.326875:1 [by dividing both sides by 48]

Then all you need to do is divide 5.6g by 2.326875 and you get 2.4066613g [the amount of oxygen in the compound]. Add this to 5.6 and you get your total:
8.01g of Fe2O3.

well, for starters, it would help if you could spell the course right :p

You'd find the masses of iron and iron oxide; find out how many moles of iron you start with, halve it (because there is two parts of iron in iron oxide therefore half as many moles from what you started with) and then times it by the molar mass of iron oxide? idk. seems right to me
