A sample of hydrated copper (II) sulfate (CuSO4•nH2O) is heated to 150°C and produces 103.74 g anhydrous copper (II) sulfate and

58.55 g water. How many moles of water molecules are present in 1.0 mol of hydrated copper (II) sulfate?

Answer:

5

Explanation:

Firstly, we convert what we have to percentage compositions.

There are two parts in the molecule, the sulphate part and the water part.

The percentage compositions is as follows:

Sulphate- (103.74)/(103.74 + 58.55) × 100% = apprx 64%

The water part = 100 - 64 = 36%

Now, we divide the percentages by the molar masses.

For the CuSO4 molar mass is 64 + 32 + 4(16) = 160g/mol

For the H2O = 2(1) + 16 = 18g/mol

Now we divide the percentages by these masses

Sulphate = 64/160 = 0.4

Water = 36/18 = 2

The ratio is thus 0.4:2 = 1:5

Hence, there are 5 water molecules.

What chemicals need to make liquid bakelite ?
Jet001 [13]
It begins with heating of phenol and formaldehyde in the presence of a catalyst such as hydrochloric acid, zinc chloride, or the base ammonia. This creates a liquid condensation product, referred to as Bakelite A, which is soluble in alcohol, acetone, or additional phenol.

Which of the following prefixes would be best to use when measuring the distance from your home to the store?
Shalnov [3]
I would say the most correct answer is Kilo, as in kilometers. The store would certainly not be milli, or millimeters away from you, would it now? :)

Hope this helps!

A 15.75 g piece of iron absorbs 1097 joules of heat energy, and its temperature changes from 25°C to 177°C. Calculate the specif
vekshin1

The answer for the following problem is mentioned below.

Explanation:

Given:

mass of iron (m) = 15.75 grams

heat (q) = 1097 J

initial temperature (t_{1}) = 25°C

final temperature (t_{2}) = 177°C

To find:

specific heat (c)

We know;

 c = q ÷ mΔT

where;

c represents the specific heat

q represents the heat

m represents the mass

t represents the temperature

c = \frac{1097}{15.75 * (177-25)}

c = 0.45 J/kg°C

<u><em>Therefore the specific heat capacity of iron is 0.45 J/kg°C.</em></u>

Which of the following is a heterogeneous mixture? [1] Cola [2] Brass Air Coffee with sugar stirred in [5] [3] Soil
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Soil is heterogeneous mixture of sand particles of different sizes, shape and of different compositions.

Explanation:

Homogeneous mixtures are defined as the mixtures in which components are evenly spread throughout the solution. The size and shape of the particles are similar in these mixtures.

For example : alloys, salt solution.

Heterogeneous mixtures are defined as the mixtures in which component are unevenly spread throughout the solution. The size and shape of the particles differ in these mixtures.

For example : sand in a water, soil etc.

Brass is an alloy homogeneous mixture of metals.

Air is a homogeneous mixture of gases.

Coffee with sugar stirred in is also homogeneous mixture.

Soil is a heterogeneous mixture of sand particles of different sizes, shape and of different compositions.
