Hydrated salts are when salt crystals have water molecules bound. Anhydrous salts are when the water has been removed.
mass of water removed = hydrated salt - anhydrate salt
= 11.75 g - 9.25 g = 2.50 g
number of water moles = 2.50 g / 18 g/mol = 0.139 mol
number of cobalt (II) chloride moles = 9.25 g / 130 g/mol = 0.0712 mol
ratio of water moles to CoCl₂ moles - 0.139 mol / 0.0712 mol = 1.95
rounded off 2 moles of water for every 1 mol of CoCl₂
formula - CoCl₂.2H₂O
name - Cobalt(II) chloride dihydrate
Answer:
Relative humidity is low .
Explanation:
The wet bulb reads low temperature because due to low humidity of atmosphere , evaporation of water takes place from the wet bulb which makes the bulb cool and therefore it reads lower temperature . In the process of evaporation , heat equal to latent heat of vaporization is taken from the bulb and it loses temperature.
Answer:
last choice
Explanation:
oxidation and reduction can be defined in terms of adding or removing oxygen to a compound
oxidation is gaining oxygen
reduction is to loss oxygen
Answer:
it has an equal number of neutrons and electrons
Explanation:
Number of protons always equal number of electron, but that's the case with a neutral atom. A neutral atom is an atom of any element that has no electric charge over it. This implies that it has same number of protons and electrons in it.
