The unknown of this problem is the experimental percent of water in the compound in order to remove the water of hydrogen, given the following:

Mass of crucible, cover and contents before heating                               23.54 g
Mass of empty crucible and cover                                                            18.82 g
Mass of crucible, cover, and contents after heating to constant mass     20.94 g

In order to get the answer, determine the following:

Mass of hydrated salt used                          = 23.54 g – 18.82 g = 4.72 g
Mass of dehydrated salt after heating          = 20.94 g – 18.82 g = 2.12 g
Mass of water liberated from salt                 = 4.72 g – 2.12 g = 2.60 g

Then solve the percent of water in the hydrated salt by:

% water = (mass of water / mass of hydrated salt) x 100
% water = 2.60 g / 4.72 g x 100
% water = 55.08 % in the compound

alexgriva [62]
Ionic compounds are composed of two ions: a positive and a negative ion. For neutral ionic compounds, these charges cancel out. For example, NaCl is a neutral atom which comes from a strong acid HCl and a strong base NaOH. Because they are both strong, the charges balance out and it comes out as neutral.

Ainat [17]

Answer:

The pellet fraction will be most radioactive because the heavy protein part of ghost will be present in the the pellet fraction.

Explanation:

supernatant can be defined as a liquid part that lies above the sediment of the centrifuge tube on the other hand pallet is a solid material present at the bottom end of the centrifuge tube.

    As protein molecules in the given experiment is radio labelled that"s why the pellet fraction will be radio labeling part because the heavy protein molecules will be present in the pellet fraction.
