<h3>Answer:</h3>
Phosphoric acid reacts with magnesium hydroxide to produce magnesium phosphate and water via the following reaction:
2H3PO4 + 3Mg(OH)2 → Mg3(PO4)2 + 6H2O
(solid) (solid) (solid) (liquid)
<h3>Explaination:</h3>
This is a typical neutralization reaction of an acid with a base to form a salt and water. The reaction is exothermic, gives off heat,
ΔH < 0 , and may be balanced by adding balancing numbers in front, ie adding molecules, in order to ensure that the total number of atoms of each element is the same on the left and right hand sides of the equation.
Doing so we obtain :
2H3PO4 + 3Mg(OH)2 → Mg3(PO4)2 + 6H2O
(solid) (solid) (solid) (liquid)

You would have to evaporate the water to get just the sugar
Answer:
a) 7.0.
b) Nickel sulfate hepta hydrate.
c) 280.83 g/mol.
d) 44.9%.
Explanation:
<u><em>a) What is the formula of the hydrate?</em></u>
The mass of the hydrated sample (NiSO₄.xH₂O) = 5.0 g,
The mass of the anhydrous salt (NiSO₄) = 2.755 g,
The mass of water = 5.0 g - 2.755 g = 2.245 g.
∴ no. of moles of water = mass/molar mass = (2.245 g)/(18.0 g/mol) = 0.1247 mol.
∴ no. of moles of anhydrous salt (NiSO₄) = mass/molar mass = (2.755 g)/(154.75 g/mol) = 0.0178 mol.
∴ water of crystallization in the sample (x) = no. of moles of water/no. of moles of anhydrous salt (NiSO₄) = (0.1247 mol)/(0.0178 mol) = 7.0.
<u><em>b) What is the full chemical name for the hydrate?</em></u>
The name of the salt (NiSO₄.7H₂O) is Nickel sulfate hepta hydrate.
<u><em>c) What is the molar mass of the hydrate? </em></u>
(NiSO₄.7H₂O)
The molar mass = molar mass of NiSO₄ + 7(molar mass of H₂O) = (154.75 g/mol) + 7(18.0 g/mol) = 280.83 g/mol.
<em><u>d) What is the mass % of water in the hydrate?</u></em>
The mass % of water = (mass of water)/(mass of hydrated sample) x 100 = (2.245 g)/(5.0 g) x 100 = 44.9%.
