In an experiment, a student was assigned to find the formula of an unknown hydrate that weighed 15.67g. The anhydrate, XCO3 (mol

ar mass = 84.32 g/mol), weighed 7.58 g after all the water was driven off. Determine the moles of water per one mole of anhydrate.

Answer:

5.0 moles of water per one mole of anhydrate

Explanation:

To solve this question we must find the moles of the anhydrate. The difference in mass between the dry and the anhydrate gives the mass of water. Thus, we can find the moles of water and the moles of water per mole of anhydrate:

<em>Moles Anhydrate:</em>

7.58g  * (1mol / 84.32g) = 0.0899 moles XCO3

<em>Moles water:</em>

15.67g - 7.58g = 8.09g * (1mol / 18.01g) = 0.449 moles H2O

Moles of water per mole of anhydrate:

0.449 moles H2O / 0.0899 moles XCO3 =

5.0 moles of water per one mole of anhydrate

Which sentence is a scientific statement?
LekaFEV [45]

Solution: Sentence D is a scientific statement.

Scientific statement is a statement that defines the science behind any situation. There should be any experimental result or observation to state any scientific statement. Also, the statement should be accepted by considering other scientific aspects.

Here, statement A can not be a scientific statement as different aromas of cooked food are liked by different people. Any one can find aroma of cooked food in copper better than the ceramic pot.

Thus, the statement can be proved wrong easily.

Statement B can not be a scientific statement as people can find the taste of normal water (without ice cubes) better than the ice cold water.

Statement C is not a scientific statement as there is no science behind watching baseball or ice hockey, it depends on the liking of today's people.

Statement D is a scientific statement because this can be scientifically proved.
