How many grams of water would there be in 100.0g of hydrate? How many moles? Mass of the hydrate 0.946g Mass of the anhydrous CuSO4 0.614gCuSO4 Mass of water driven off? 0.347g H2O The percent water in the hydrate 36.0%
I would find the moles first and then the grams? that is the only thing throwing me off.
How many grams of water would there be in 100.0 g hydrate? 52.6 grams of water would be in 100 grams of sample how many moles 52.6 grams of water @ molar mass of 18.01 g/mol H2O = 2.92 moles of H2O I forgot how I got these but I remember my answers..
How did you find the grams of water though?
Mass of the hydrate 0.946g Mass of the anhydrous CuSO4 0.614gCuSO4 mass of water = mass of hydrate - mass of anhydrous compound \(moles=\dfrac{mass~(in~g)}{Molar~mass}\)
find mass first, then moles
