All chemical reactions are chemical changes. The Law of Conservation of Matter states that matter cannot be created or destroyed. In a physical change, substances can change form, but the total mass remains the same. In a chemical change, the total mass of the reactants always equals the total mass of the products.
<span>First we need to find the energy of one photon with a wavelength of 589 nm.
E = hc / wavelength
E = (6.63 x 10^{-34} J s)(3 x 10^8 m/s) / (589 x 10^{-9} m)
E = 3.3769 x 10^{-19} Joules
To find N, the number of photons, we need to divide the total energy by the energy of each photon.
N = 623000 J / 3.3769 x 10^{-19} Joules
N = 1.84 x 10^{24} photons
There are 1.84 x 10^{24} photons in the burst of yellow light.</span>
Answer:
The water lost is 36% of the total mass of the hydrate
Explanation:
<u>Step 1:</u> Data given
Molar mass of CuSO4*5H2O = 250 g/mol
Molar mass of CuSO4 = 160 g/mol
<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate mass of water lost
Mass of water lost = 250 - 160 = 90 grams
<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate % water
% water = (mass water / total mass of hydrate)*100 %
% water = (90 grams / 250 grams )*100% = 36 %
We can control this by the following equation
The hydrate has 5 moles of H2O
5*18. = 90 grams
(90/250)*100% = 36%
(160/250)*100% = 64 %
The water lost is 36% of the total mass of the hydrate
