MM Zn(NO₃)₂ = 189.36 g/mol
mass 1 mol Zn(NO₃)₂ = 189.36 g
mass hydrate = 100 / 63.67 x 189.36 = 297.409 g
mass 1 mol hydrate = 297.409 g
MM hydrate = 297.409 g/mol
MM hydrate = MM Zn(NO₃)₂ + MM xH₂O
297.409 = 189.36 + x(18)
x = 6
A molecule is defined as two or more atoms of the same element different element that are bound together. A molecule may be homonuclear, which means, it consists of atoms of one chemical element, as with oxygen (O2); or it may be heteronuclear, a chemical compound composed of more than one element, as with water (H2O).
