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.
Pushing down a piston in an airtight cylinder would tend to increase the pressure in the system since the particle collision and collisions with the walls are now more frequent. Also, pushing further, the gas would undergo a phase change from gas to a liquid.
Answer:
5.19 x 10²³ molecules of H₂O
Explanation:
1 mole => 6.023 x 10²³ molecules of H₂O
0.861 mole => 0.861mole x 6.023 x 10²³ molecules of H₂O
= 5.19 x 10²³ molecules of H₂O
