I would say that B is the correct answer which means that the melting point would be intensive or that no matter how large or small the sample of the sulphur is, it will have a consistent melting temperature or of 115.2 degrees C.
Answer:
The answer to your question is 64.02 g of H₂O
Explanation:
Data
Mass of magnesium sulfate hepta hydrated = 125 g
Mass of water = ?
Process
1.- Calculate the molar mass of the salt and the molar mass of water
molar mass of MgSO₄ 7H₂O = 24 + 32 + 64 + 14 + 112 = 246 g
mass of H₂O = 2 + 16 = 18 g
2.- Use proportions to calculate the mass of water in the epsom salt
246 g MgSO₄ 7H₂O------------------------- 126 g of H₂O
125 g ------------------------- x
x = (125 x 126)/246
x = 15750/246
x = 64.02 g of H₂O
