Answer:

Mn

Explanation:

The cation in the chemical formula MnSe is the Mn specie.

  • A cation is a positively charge ion or radical.
  • Such an ion has lost electrons and this leaves a net positive charge on them.
  • The Mn is the cation
  • Most metals forms cations as they readily lose electrons due to their large atomic radius.
  • Se is the anion as it will carry a negative charge
  • Most non-metals are anions

A sample of hydrated magnesium sulfate (MgSO4)
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

MgSO4.7H2O

Explanation:

Let the formula for the hydrated magnesium sulphate be MgSO4.xH2O

Mass of the hydrated salt (MgSO4.xH2O) = 12.845g

Mass of anhydrous salt (MgSO4) = 6.273g

Mass of water molecule(xH2O) = Mass of the hydrated salt — Mass of anhydrous salt = 12.845 — 6.273 = 6.572g

Now,we can obtain the number of mole of water molecule present in the hydrated salt as follows:

Molar Mass of hydrated salt (MgSO4.xH2O) = 24 + 32 + (16x4) + x(2 + 16) = 24 + 32 + 64 + x(18) = 120 + 18x

Mass of xH2O/ Molar Mass of MgSO4.xH2O = Mass of water / mass of hydrated salt

18x/120 + 18x = 6.572/12.845

Cross multiply to express in linear form

18x x 12.845 = 6.572(120 + 18x)

231.21x = 788.64 + 118.296x

Collect like terms

231.21x — 118.296x = 788.64

112.914x = 788.64

Divide both side by 112.914

x = 788.64 /112.914

x = 7

Therefore the formula for the hydrated salt (MgSO4.xH2O) is MgSO4.7H2O
