Answer:
The water lost is 36% of the total mass of the hydrate
Explanation:
<u>Step 1:</u> Data given
Molar mass of CuSO4*5H2O = 250 g/mol
Molar mass of CuSO4 = 160 g/mol
<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate mass of water lost
Mass of water lost = 250 - 160 = 90 grams
<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate % water
% water = (mass water / total mass of hydrate)*100 %
% water = (90 grams / 250 grams )*100% = 36 %
We can control this by the following equation
The hydrate has 5 moles of H2O
5*18. = 90 grams
(90/250)*100% = 36%
(160/250)*100% = 64 %
The water lost is 36% of the total mass of the hydrate
Answer:
newtons 3rd law of motion
Explanation:
This question requires the knowledge of density.
The density of ethyl alcohol = 789 kg m⁻³
The density of water = 1000 kg m⁻³
Density = Mass / Volume
By applying ethyl alcohol,
789 kg m⁻³ = Mass / 0.9 m³
Mass = 710.1 kg
hence the mass of 0.9 m³ ethyl alcohol is 710.1 kg.
Then by applying water,
1000 kg m⁻³ = 710.1 kg / Volume
Volume = 0.7101 m³
= 0.7 m³
hence the equal water volume is 0.7 m³
