              150°C
X*5H₂O    →    X + 5H₂O↑

m₀=100 g
m(X)=8 g
M(H₂O)=18.0 g/mol
n(H₂O)=5 mol

the mass of the water 
m(H₂O)=M(H₂O)n(H₂O)
m(H₂O)=18.0*5=90 g

the mass of the residue after removal of water
m'(X)=100-90=10 g

the percentage of impurity in X*5H₂O
w(imp)=[m'(X)-m(X)]/m₀

w(imp)=[10-8]/100=0.02 (2%)

Answer:

220.42098 amu

Explanation:

(220 .9 X  .7422) + (220 X .0.1278) + (218.1 X 0.13) =     220.42098 amu

These are weighted averages.

So, we will take mass of one and multiply by abundance percentage that is provided and add them together.

In order to calculate the  average atomic mass, we have to convert the percentages of abundance to decimals. So, you get

(220 .9 X  .7422) + (220 X .0.1278) + (218.1 X 0.13) =     220.42098 amu

Why is enthalpy important?
belka [17]
The Law of Conservation of Energy states that, within a closed system, the total amount of energy remains constant. However, energy may change from kinetic to potential and vice versa. The total energy will not have changed. <span>Enthalpy is a measure of the amount of energy that exists in a system at constant pressure. </span>
