Answer:
Explanation:
From the 1 g sample you have:
0.546 grams of cobalt chloride
1-0.546=0.454 grams of water
Now:
1) The salt
Of the 0.546 g, 0.248 g are cobalt (Mr=58.9) and the rest id Cl (Mr=35.45):
Dividing:
So the molecular formula will be:
2) The water
The water's molecular weight is M=18 :
Bonding with the Co:
The complete formula of the hydrate:
Answer:
The ionic compound NaCl has a Face Centered Cubic unit cell
The site for atoms are Face, center and Edges corner.
Effective number of atoms
Na+
1centers + 12edges x = 4 Na+
Cl-
6face x +
x8 corners = 4Cl-
This is just one unit cell effective atom, there are thousand's of such unit cells are combined to form one such structure of NaCl. The real formula of NaCl is Na4Cl4 but for simplicity we use empirical formula that is NaCl.
