Answer:

The answer to your question is 64.02 g of H₂O

Explanation:

Data

Mass of magnesium sulfate hepta hydrated = 125 g

Mass of water = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the molar mass of the salt and the molar mass of water

molar mass of MgSO₄ 7H₂O = 24 + 32 + 64 + 14 + 112 = 246 g

mass of H₂O = 2 + 16 = 18 g

2.- Use proportions to calculate the mass of water in the epsom salt

                246 g MgSO₄ 7H₂O------------------------- 126 g of H₂O

                125 g                        -------------------------   x

                x = (125 x 126)/246

                x = 15750/246

               x = 64.02 g of H₂O

Hello summer roses~<br>help me with these questions ​
Olegator [25]

Answer:

  • The process of "slaking" of lime refers to the use of excess water for hydration. balanced equation: CaO + H₂0 = Ca(OH)₂ + heat released

  • First lets know which oxide is quick lime - CaO, is basic in nature as a result it combines with acidic oxides using heat. For example we are gonna make it react with silicon dioxide which is a very weak acid: CaO + SiO₂ → CaSiO₃

Hope this helps ~

which components of an endothermic reaction have a higher heat content?-reactants-products-reaction vessel-water
lana66690 [7]
Please, observe that it is not right to say that a substance content heat.

Heat is not something that a body or substance content. Heat is the transmission of energy due to difference of temperatures.

An endothermic reactions is that where the reactants abosorb energy from the surroundings to occur. The products, then, will be higher in energy than the reactants while the surroundings get colder.

An undergraduate weighed out 20grams of sodium hydroxide pellets. If Na =23, O = 16 andH = 1, What is the mole of this sodium hy
tatuchka [14]
The answer would be .5 mols because you take the total amount of grams, which is 20, and you had up the molar mass of sodium hydroxide, which would be 40. After you have this you would set this up as a stochiometry equation. With 1 mol on top you dived 20/40 to cancel out your grams. This leaves you with .5 mols
