A hydrate is a compound that has water molecules within its crystal structure. Magnesium sulfate heptahydrate, MgSO4·7H2O, is a
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

We are heating the sample repeatedly to become a pure compound of only MgSO4 (withot H2O) and a constant mass.

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of MgSO4·7H2O = 5.06 grams

The remaining MgSO4 had a constant mass of 2.47 grams.

Step 2: Explain why the sample in the crucible was heated repeatedly until the sample had a constant mass.

Before heating the compound has magnesium sulfate and water.

The total mass of this compound is 5.06 grams

By heating we try to eliminate the water.

After heating there remain mgSO4 with a mass of 2.47 grams

This means 5.06 - 2.47 = 2.59 grams is water. All of this is eliminated.

The heating process happens repeatedly to make sure the final compound is pure. So the 2.47 grams os only MgSO4. If the mass would not be constant. It means the compound is not pure, the not all the water is eliminated yet.

So we are heating the sample repeatedly to become a pure compound of only MgSO4 (withot H2O) and a constant mass.

<span>Let's assume that the oxygen gas has ideal gas behavior. 
Then we can use ideal gas formula,

Once formed, how are coordinate covalent bonds different from other covalent bonds?
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf {One \ atom \ donates \ both \ electrons \ in \ a \ pair}}}

Explanation:

A covalent bond involves the sharing of electrons to make the atoms more stable, and so they satisfy the Octet Rule (8 valence electrons).

Typically each atom contributes an electron to form an electron pair. This is a single bond. There are also double bonds (two pairs of electrons), triple bonds (three pairs of electrons), and coordinate covalent bonds.

Sometimes, to satisfy the Octet Rule and achieve stability, one atom contributes both of the electrons in an electron pair. This is different from other covalent bonds because usually each of the 2 atoms contributes an electron to make a pair.

Using the redox reaction below determine which element is oxidized and which is reduced. 4nh3 + 3ca(clo)2 → 2n2 + 6h2o + 3cacl2
lys-0071 [83]
The oxidation number of elements in equation below are,

                         4NH₃ + 3Ca(ClO)₂ → 2N₂ + 6H₂O + 3CaCl₂

O.N of N in NH₃ = -3
O.N of Ca in Ca(ClO)₂ and CaCl₂ = +2
O.N of N in N₂ = 0
O.N of Cl in Ca(ClO)₂ = +1
O.N of Cl in CaCl₂ = -1

Oxidation:
               Oxidation number of Nitrogen is increasing from -3 (NH₃) to 0 (N₂).

Reduction:
               Oxidation number of Cl is decreasing from +1 [Ca(ClO)₂] to -1 (CaCl₂).

Result:
          <span>N is oxidized and Cl is reduced.</span>
