The primary reason that large numbers of people left Ireland in the 1840s and 1850s was MASS STARVATION.

Great Famine or Great Hunger was a period in Ireland where mass starvation, diseases, and emigration occurred between 1845 to 1852.

The Great Famine was caused by Phytophthora infestans, a disease that infests in potatoes. Though the potato infestation spread throughout Europe, it greatly affected Ireland, where 1/3 of its population was dependent on the potato crop as their primary source of food.

The loss of their primary source of food led to mass starvation, sickness, and eventual death. Others opted to leave Ireland and seek shelter and food in other countries to survive.

1) A potassium carbonate hydrate has a formula K2CO3.XH2O. 10g of the hydrate leave 7.83g of anhydrous salt upon heating. Deduce
OLEGan [10]

The formula of the hydrated potassium carbonate salt is K₂CO₃.2H₂O

Based on the calculated mass ratio of carbon and oxygen in carbon dioxide, carbon has a fixed composition.

<h3>What are hydrated compounds?</h3>

Hydrated compounds are compounds that contain one or more molecules of water physically combined with a molecule of the compound.

The formula of the hydrated potassium carbonate salt is determined as follows:

Mass of the hydrated sample = 10.0 g

Mass of anhydrous salt = 7.83

mass of water = 10 - 7.83

mass of water = 2.17 g

Molar mass of water = 18.0 g

Molar mass of anhydrous potassium carbonate = 138 g

moles of anhydrous potassium carbonate in sample = 7.83/138

moles of anhydrous potassium carbonate = 0.056 moles

moles of water in the hydrated salt = 2.17/18

moles of water in the hydrated salt = 0.12

Mole ratio of water to anhydrous salt = 0.12/0.056

Mole ratio of water to anhydrous salt = 1 : 2

Formula of hydrated salt = K₂CO₃.2H₂O

The mass ratio of carbon to oxygen in the compounds is given below:

Sample 1:

Mass ratio = 3.62 / (13.26 - 3.62)

Mass ratio = 0.38 : 1

Sample 2:

Mass ratio = 5.91 / (21.66 - 5.91)

Mass ratio = 0.38 : 1

Sample 3:

Mass ratio = 7.07 / (25.91 - 7.07)

Mass ratio = 0.38 : 1

Carbon has a fixed composition.
