The correct response is C. Chlorine forms 1 covalent bond while Oxygen forms 2 covalent bonds.
The masses can be found by substractions:
- Mass of CaSO₄.H2O (hydrate):
16.05 g - 13.56 g = 2.49 g
15.07 g - 13.56 g = 1.51 g
- The mass of water is equal to the difference between the mass of the hydrate and the mass of the anhydrate:
2.49 g - 1.51 g = 0.98 g
- The percent of water is found by the formula:
massWater ÷ massHydrate * 100%
0.98 g ÷ 2.49 g * 100% = 39.36%
- The mole of water is calculated using water's molecular weight (18g/mol):
0.98 g ÷ 18 g/mol = 0.054 mol water
- A similar procedure is made for the mole of salt (CaSO₄ = 136.14 g/mol)
1.51 g ÷ 136.14 g/mol = 0.011 mol CaSO₄
- The ratio of mole of water to mole of anhydrate is:
0.054 mol water / 0.011 mol CaSO₄ = 0.49
In other words the molecular formula for the hydrate salt is CaSO₄·0.5H₂O

Answer:
The molecular formula is C12H18O3
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
The empirical formula is C4H6O
Molecular weight is 212 g/mol
atomic mass of C = 12 g/mol
atomic mass of H = 1 g/mol
atomic mass of O = 16 g/mol
Step 2: Calculate the molar mass of the empirical formula
Molar mass = 4* 12 + 6*1 +16
Molar mass = 70 g/mol
Step 3: Calculate the molecular formula
We have to multiply the empirical formula by n
n = the molecular weight of the empirical formula / the molecular weight of the molecular formula
n = 70 /212 ≈ 3
We have to multiply the empirical formula by 3
3*(C4H6O- = C12H18O3
The molecular formula is C12H18O3
