Explanation of the strategy: 1) calculate the mass of water and convert to number of moles, 2) convert the mass of anhydrous CuSO4 to moles, and, 3)calculate the mole ratio of water to CuSO4 anhydrous
1) Calculate the mass of water:
mass of water = mass of the hydrate CuSO4 - mass of the anhydrous compound
mass of water = 12.98 g - 9.70 g = 3.28g
2) Calculate the number of moles of water
number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass
molar mass of water = 18.01 g/mol
number of moles of water = 3.28 g / 18.01 g/mol = 0.182 mol
3) Calculate the number of moles of CuSO4 anhydrous
number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass
molar mass of Cu SO4 = 159.6 g/mol
number of moles of CuSO4 = 9.70g / 159.6 g/mol = 0.0608 moles
4) Calculate the ratio moles of water / moles of CuSO4
ratio = moles of water / moles of CuSO4 = 0.182 / 0.0608 = 2.99 ≈ 3
Therefore the molecular formula is CuSO4 . 3H2O
Name: copper(II) sulfate trihydrate.
The volume of 0.160 m Li2S solution required to completely react with 130 ml of 0.160 CO(NO3)2 is calculated as below
write the reacting equation
Co(NO3)2 + Li2S = 2LiNO3 + COS
find the moles of CO(NO3)2 = molarity x volume
= 130 ml x 0.160=20.8 moles
since the reacting moles between CO(NO3)2 to LiS is 1:1 the moles of LiS is also 20.8 moles
volume of Lis is therefore = moles of Lis/ molarity of LiS
= 20.8/0.160 = 130 Ml
