Mafic lava is low viscosity lava that creates quiet eruptions.
The masses can be found by substractions:
- Mass of CaSO₄.H2O (hydrate):
16.05 g - 13.56 g = 2.49 g
15.07 g - 13.56 g = 1.51 g
- The mass of water is equal to the difference between the mass of the hydrate and the mass of the anhydrate:
2.49 g - 1.51 g = 0.98 g
- The percent of water is found by the formula:
massWater ÷ massHydrate * 100%
0.98 g ÷ 2.49 g * 100% = 39.36%
- The mole of water is calculated using water's molecular weight (18g/mol):
0.98 g ÷ 18 g/mol = 0.054 mol water
- A similar procedure is made for the mole of salt (CaSO₄ = 136.14 g/mol)
1.51 g ÷ 136.14 g/mol = 0.011 mol CaSO₄
- The ratio of mole of water to mole of anhydrate is:
0.054 mol water / 0.011 mol CaSO₄ = 0.49
In other words the molecular formula for the hydrate salt is CaSO₄·0.5H₂O
The masses of the components are obtained as;
- Sodium hydrogen carbonate = 3.51 g
- Sodium carbonate = 8.708 g
<h3>What is decomposition?</h3>
The term decomposition has to do with the breakdown of the given substance into its components. The components of sodium hydrogen carbonate could be identified as water vapor, carbon dioxide gas and sodium carbonate. Among these products that have been listed here, we can see that it is only the sodium carbonate that remains as a solid. The others are gases that move away from the system that is under study.
Now putting down the equation of the reaction, we have;

Now, the loss in mass must be due to the carbon dioxide and the water. Hence we obtain the loss in mass to be 10.000 g - 8.708 g = 1.292 g
Mass of sodium hydrogen carbonate = 2 * 88 g/mol * 1.292 g/62 g/mol
= 3.51 g

Answer:
Maritime tropical air mass
Continental polar air mass
4% mass / volume :
4 g ---------> 100 mL
1.2 g ------- ? mL
V = 1.2 * 100 / 4
V = 120 / 4
V = 30 mL
