You have to find the number of moles of water and calcium sulfate.  
to find the mass of water you subtract 3.87 by 4.89 to get 1.02g water and we are given taht the mass of calcium sulfate is 3.87g
then find the moles of water and calcium sulfate in the sample
1.02/18=0.05667mol water
3.87/136.2=0.0284 mol water
now you have to find how many moles there are per one mole of calcium sufate.
0.05667/0.0284=1.994 which can be rounded to 2 mol water for ever 1 mol calcium sulfate
therefore the formula for this CaSO₄·2H₂O and is called calcium sulfate dihydrate.

I hope this helps

How many grams of Al are needed to react with 63.0 g of FeO
Tema [17]

The amount of Al required will be 15.77 grams

<h3>Stoichiometric problem</h3>

First, the equation of the reaction:

2Al +3 FeO -- > Al_2O_3 + 3Fe

The mole ratio is 2:3.

Mole of 63.0 g of FeO = 63/71.84 = 0.8769 moles

Equivalent moles of Al = 0.8769 x 2/3 = 0.5846 moles

Mass of 0.5846 moles Al = 0.5846 x 26.98 = 15.77 grams

Be sure to answer all parts. find the most acidic hydrogen in tert−butyl methyl ketone and write a chemical equation for the pro
sleet_krkn [62]
Those Hydrogen atoms which are present at alpha position to carbonyl group are mildly acidic in nature. When such acidic proton containing carbonyl compounds are treated with strong base, they yield enolates. The negative charge created on alpha carbon resonates and shifts to carbonyl oxygen resulting in formation of carbon double bond carbon.

In <span>tert−butyl methyl ketone there are two carbons at each alpha position. Among these two carbons only methyl carbon contains hydrogen atoms while the second one is bonded to further three carbons making it Quaternary carbon. The base abstracts proton from methyl group and enolate is formed. 

</span>tert−butyl methyl ketone in this case acts as acid, Hydroxyl ion acts as base, while the enolate generated is the conjugate base of <span>tert−butyl methyl ketone and Water produced is the conjugate acid of hydroxide ion.</span>

In the formation of potassium chloride, the product, KCl, has less energy than the reactants, K and Cl2. This reaction is .
k0ka [10]

if the product has lesser energy than the reactants it means enthalpy change value is positive.so it is endothermic reaction where the heat is absorbed.so kcl will formation will have positive enthalpy change .
