The masses can be found by substractions:

  • Mass of CaSO₄.H2O (hydrate):

16.05 g - 13.56 g = 2.49 g

  • Mass of CaSO₄ anhydrate:

15.07 g - 13.56 g = 1.51 g

  • The mass of water is equal to the difference between the mass of the hydrate and the mass of the anhydrate:

2.49 g - 1.51 g = 0.98 g

  • The percent of water is found by the formula:

massWater ÷ massHydrate * 100%

0.98 g ÷ 2.49 g * 100% = 39.36%

  • The mole of water is calculated using water's molecular weight (18g/mol):

0.98 g ÷ 18 g/mol = 0.054 mol water

  • A similar procedure is made for the mole of salt (CaSO₄ = 136.14 g/mol)

1.51 g ÷ 136.14 g/mol = 0.011 mol CaSO₄

  • The ratio of mole of water to mole of anhydrate is:

0.054 mol water / 0.011 mol CaSO₄ = 0.49

In other words the molecular formula for the hydrate salt is CaSO₄·0.5H₂O

2.50 liter of a gas has a pressure of 165. kPa at 25.0°C. If the pressure increases to 600. kPa and the temperature to 100.0°C,
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

0.861 L

Explanation:

We are given pressure, volume, and temperature, so let's apply the Combined Gas Law:

(P₁V₁)/T₁ = (P₂V₂)/T₂

Convert the temperatures to degrees Kelvin.

25.0°C -> 298 K, 100.0°C -> 373 K

Plug in the initial conditions on the left, then the final/new on the right, and solve for the unknown:

(165(2.5))/298 = (600(V₂))/373

V₂ = (165(2.5)(373))/(298(600))

V₂ = 0.861 L

2. Would you measure a pencil in meters? A hallway in millimeters? Discuss
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Measuring a pencil in meters would be very difficult, as a single meter is much longer than one pencil. Also, measuring a hallway in millimeters would be very difficult considering how small millimeters are in comparison to a hallway. However, if you switch these two then they would work very well.
