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

F (Fluorine) is in column (group/family) VIIA, or the "halogens". When you see the halogens (Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, and Iodine) in combination with a metal, each halogen atom present will carry a -1 charge. We can see that the atom has no charge, so the metal must cancel out the negative charges brought by the two fluorine atoms.
(Charge on m) + 2*(charge on fluorine) = 0
(Charge on m) + 2*(-1) = 0
(Charge on m) - 2 = 0
Charge on m ion = +2
