percentage by mass of water in Epson salt? DISCUSSION- When a crystal forms from water solutions‚ it takes a certain amount of water as part of the crystalline structures. The water is not covalently bonded to the host molecule or ion. Water is taken up in definite proportion in relation to the mass of the crystalline structure. This water that is trapped inside the hydrated solid structure is called water of crystallization or water of hydration. A salt with associated water of crystallization

up a hydrated salt in order to determine the percentage of water inside of this hydrated salt. We heated up the salt in order to boil off the water‚ which allowed us to find the weight of the CuSO4 by itself. By comparing this final weight with the original weight and subtracting the difference‚ we were able to compile data about how much the weight of the hydrated salt decreased as the water gradually boiled away. In doing so‚ we were able to find the total weight of the water in the hydrated salt

Objective 1. Use the analytical balance to weigh a given hydrated salt as accurate as possible in order to determine the weight of water in the salt Introduction Balances are important laboratory equipment as they are used to determine the mass of materials. Today‚ most balances used in the laboratory are analytical balances which can give readings up to four decimal places or higher. High accuracy is needed in certain experimental work such as material analysis or those involving small change

Determining the Chemical Formula of a Hydrate Chemistry 11 3/5/2013 Purpose: To determine the percent by mass of water in a hydrate of copper (II) sulfate hydrate. Hypothesis: I hypothesize that when the solution is heated the hydrate will convert to an anhydrous ionic compound. Then the percentage composition will be determined by weighing the mass of the white crystals. Materials: 400ml beaker‚ hot plate‚ tongs‚ scoopula‚ electronic balance‚ glass rod‚ hot pad‚ and 4g of hydrated

Experiment 5: Percent Water in a Hydrated Salt Chemistry 1300 Instructor: 2/8/12 Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to determine the percent by mass in a hydrated salt‚ as well as to learn to handle laboratory apparatus without touching it. The hydrated salt‚ calcium carbonate‚ was heated with high temperature to release water molecules. Gravimetric analysis was used in this experiment to determine the percent by mass of water in a hydrated salt. The hypothesis of this experiment

if an egg will float in salt water. The question is how much salt is needed to be added to the water to make the egg float. The problem is that no one knows how much salt is needed to make an egg float. Hypothesis It will take at least three teaspoons of salt to be added to the water for the egg to float. The reason why I think three teaspoons of salt will need to be added to water for the egg to float is because the egg a density that is lower than the density of the salt water.
