Hydrogen bonds are not like covalent bonds. They are nowhere near as strong and you can't think of them in terms of a definite number like a valence. Polar molecules interact with each other and hydrogen bonds are an example of this where the interaction is especially strong. In your example you could represent it like this:
<span>H2C=O---------H-OH </span>
<span>But you should remember that the H2O molecule will be exchanging constantly with others in the solvation shell of the formaldehyde molecule and these in turn will be exchanging with other H2O molecules in the bulk solution. </span>
<span>Formaldehyde in aqueous solution is in equilibrium with its hydrate. </span>
<span>H2C=O + H2O <-----------------> H2C(OH)2</span>
Answer:
C
Explanation:
As long as those numbers are subscripts then that's right
Answer:
Weigh the empty crucible, and then weigh into it between 2 g and 3 g of hydrated copper(II) sulphate. Record all weighings accurate to the nearest 0.01 g.
Support the crucible securely in the pipe-clay triangle on the tripod over the Bunsen burner.
Heat the crucible and contents, gently at first, over a medium Bunsen flame, so that the water of crystallisation is driven off steadily. The blue colour of the hydrated compound should gradually fade to the greyish-white of anhydrous copper(II) sulfate. Avoid over-heating, which may cause further decomposition, and stop heating immediately if the colour starts to blacken. If over-heated, toxic or corrosive fumes may be evolved. A total heating time of about 10 minutes should be enough.
Allow the crucible and contents to cool. The tongs may be used to move the hot crucible from the hot pipe-clay triangle onto the heat resistant mat where it should cool more rapidly.
Re-weigh the crucible and contents once cold.
Calculation:
Calculate the molar masses of H2O and CuSO4 (Relative atomic masses: H=1, O=16, S=32, Cu=64)
Calculate the mass of water driven off, and the mass of anhydrous copper(II) sulfate formed in your experiment
Calculate the number of moles of anhydrous copper(II) sulfate formed
Calculate the number of moles of water driven off
Calculate how many moles of water would have been driven off if 1 mole of anhydrous copper(II) sulfate had been formed
Write down the formula for hydrated copper(II) sulfate.
