Answer 1

Mass of hydrate + crucible = 47.29 g

Mass of anhydrous salt = 2.7 g

Molar mass of anhydrous salt CuSO4 = 159.5 g

Given,

mass of empty crucible = 42.45 g

mass of hydrate salt= 4.84 g

mass of crucible after first heating = 46.1 g

mass of crucible after second heating= 45.153 g

mass of crucible after third heating= 45.15 g

so, as per the question we need to find...

Mass of hydrate + crucible = ? g

Mass of anhydrous salt = ? g

Molar mass of anhydrous salt CuSO4 = ? g

∴Mass of hydrate + crucible = 42.45 + 4.48 = 47.29 g

The given salt is in hydrate form, to remove water from this molecule we need to perform heating .

So we are taking the substance into the crucible as it is in less quantity.

Here, we performed heating 3 times and note the weight after every heating.

After this, assume that the water is totally evaporated and the remaining salt is in anhydrous form,

∴ Mass of anhydrous salt = 45.15 - 42.45 = 2.7 g

To find the molar mass of anhydrous salt of CuSO4,

atomic weight of Cu = 63.5 g

atomic weight of S = 32 g

atomic weight of O =16 g

∴ molar mass of anhydrous salt of CuSO4 = 63.5 + 32 + (16 ×3)

                                                                   =159.5 gm
