Given parameters:
Volume of CuSO₄ = 250mL
Concentration of CuSO₄ = 2.01M
Unknown:
Mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O = ?
To solve this problem, we must write the chemical relationship between both species.;
CuSO₄.5H₂O → CuSO₄ + 5H₂O
Now that we know the expression, it is possible to solve for the unknown mass.
First find the number of moles of CuSO₄;
Number of moles = Concentration x Volume
Take 250mL to L so as to ensure uniformity of units;
Volume = 250 x 10⁻³L
Input the parameters and solve for number of moles;
Number of moles = 250 x 10⁻³ x 2.01 = 0.5mol
From the equation;
1 mole of CuSO₄ is produced from 1 mole of CuSO₄.5H₂O
So 0.5 moles of CuSO₄ will be produced from 0.5 moles of CuSO₄.5H₂O
Now let us find the molar mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O = 63.6 + 32 + 4(16) + 5(2x1 + 16) = 249.6g/mole
Mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O = number of moles x molar mass
= 0.5 x 249.6
= 124.8g
The mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O is 124.8g
<span>The correct answer is d. The reaction releases more energy than it absorbs. An example of an exothermic reaction is fire. Connecting the carbon atoms in wood with the oxygen in the air causes flames and gives of heat and light.</span>
