A 0.551-g sample of hydrated copper(II) sulfate, CuSO4.xH2O, was heated carefully until it had changed completely to anydrous copper(II) sulfate (CuSO4) with a mass of 0.308 g. Determine the value of x. [This number is called the number of waters of hydration of copper(II) sulfate. It specifies the number of water molecules per formula unit of copper(II) sulfate in the hydrated crystal.
When 3.44g of the mineral gypsum, CaSO4⋅xH2O, is heated to 128∘C, 2.90g of CaSO4⋅1/2H2O is obtained. What is the value of x in the formula of gypsum?
Please explain. Thank you. (1) When a sample of ferric sulfate hydrate (EeSO4 XH20(s)) is heated to 270 C in an otherwise empty 625-mL container, it decomposes into ferric oxide (EeO(s), M 71.85 g/mol), sulfur trioxide (SO3(g), M = 80.06 g/mol), and water vapor (H20(g) 18.02 g/mol) wwwww = M = FESO4 XH2O(s) FeO(s) SO3(g) x H20 (g) wwwww www When all the FeSO4xH2O(s) in the sample decomposes, 1.80 g of FeO(s) forms and the total pressure of all gases...
Alum [KAl(SO4)2·xH2O] is used in food preparation, dye fixation, and water purification. To prepare alum, aluminum is reacted with potassium hydroxide and the product with sulfuric acid. Upon cooling, alum crystallizes from the solution. (a) A 0.4711−g sample of alum is heated to drive off the waters of hydration, and the resulting KAl(SO4)2 weighs 0.2564 g. Determine the value of x and the complete formula of alum. Value of x: Complete Formula: (b) When 0.7339 g of aluminum is used,...
Epsom salts, a strong laxative used in veterinary medicine, is a hydrate, which means that a certain number of water molecules are included in the solid structure. The formula for Epsom salts can be written as MgSO4⋅xH2O, where x indicates the number of moles of H2O per mole of MgSO4. When 4.555 g of this hydrate is heated to 250 ∘C, all the water of hydration is lost, leaving 2.225 g of MgSO4. What is the value of x?
CHM 010 On-Line Lab, Formula of a Hydrate PURPOSE: To determine the formula of Cuso..x H20. In other words, to determine the value of "X". PROCEDURE: When copper(II) sulfate x hydrate, a blue crystalline solid containing embedded water molecules (called a hydrate), is heated in air, it loses the water molecules and the blue solid is transformed to a white anhydrous (no water) crystal known as anhydrous copper(II) sulfate. The "x" represents a whole number of water molecules attached to...
When copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate is heated in air above 100C, it loses the water molecules and also its blue color. CuSO4•5H2O—>CuSO4 + 5H2O If 9.75 g of CuSO4 are left after heating 15.25 g of the blue hydrate, calculate the number of moles of water originally present in 15.25 g of the hydrate.
DATA ANALYSIS 3. Some salts, when they form, may trap water are referred to as hydrated salts. The structure. This is referred to as an anhydrous sait. of water molecules per unit of salt (e.g. xg H, per When heated, the water can be drivent from the salt it results in the anhydrous form of that sa chloride. In its anhydrous form the formula for form the formula for cobalt chloride is CoCl2 XH2O per given unit of salt. If...
