A solid formed from liquid reactants chemical reactions is called a precipitate.
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:
3
Explanation:
If oxygen reacts with iron, then both must be reactants and rust the product of that reaction
