Answer is: f<span>ormula for the hydrated compound is CuSO</span>₄·3H₂O.
ω(H₂O) = 25,3% = 0,253.
ω(CuSO₄) = 100% - 25,3%.
ω(CuSO₄) = 74,7% = 0,747.
ω(H₂O) : M(H₂O) = ω(CuSO₄) : M(CuSO₄).
0,253 : M(H₂O) = 0,747 : 159,6 g/mol.
M(H₂O) = (0,253 · 159,6 g/mol) ÷ 0,747.
M(H₂O) = 54 g/mol.
N(H₂O) = 54 g/mol ÷ 18 g/mol.
N(H₂O) = 3.
Answer: The answer is 6. Or A on USATestprep.
Explanation: The sum of the coefficients of the balanced chemical equation is 6. The coefficients are the numbers in front of the compounds in the reaction equation.
