Percent Water in a Hydrate PURPOSE To determine the percent water in a hydrate sample. INTRODUCTION Many substances contain water molecules as a part of their crystal structure. We call such solids hydrates‚ and we call the bound water the water of hydration. A hydrate has a definite number of water molecules bound to each anhydrous salt unit. The formula of the hydrate copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate is CuSO4 · 5 H2O The dot indicates that the molecules of water are attached to the ions in

Pennsylvania State University Lab Report on Experiment 10- The Chemistry of Natural Waters Introduction What is water hardness? Water is extremely important to all living things and even to non-living things‚ indirectly. Therefore‚ the way water travels and gets to a place is also extremely important because its transportation methods determine the chemicals that get involved and added into the water as it travels. This relates to the hardness of water. The hardness of water is basically caused by the

Sacramento tap water reveals ion concentrations of various different dissolved minerals such as calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+). These concentrations are a result of mineral deposits in local lakes and rivers. Perma Pure‚ a gas conditioning products manufacturing company‚ simplifies the mechanism of ion exchange by explaining that water is a solvent that dissolves most ionic bonds when exposed to compounds ("The Mechanism of Ion Exchange"). Therefore‚ as tap water passes through rocks it will

Alisha Prakash Biol 111-513 The Properties of Water; Osmosis and Diffusion Hypothesis: When animal and plant cells are placed in a solution‚ the movement of water is effected by the solute concentration of the solution. If animal and plant cells are placed in a more concentrated solution‚ the solution becomes hypertonic to the cells‚ causing water to exit the cells. This changes the appearance of the cells‚ causing the cells to look darker (more concentrated) and shriveled up. Null Hypothesis:

11.1 Washing with cold distilled water Washing process is not only remove soluble protein‚ fat‚ and pro-oxidant‚ but may also remove antioxidant. Therefore the oxidative stability of muscle ultimately depends upon the antioxidant/prooxidant balance that remains after the muscle is washed. It suggests that washing may promote oxidation in mince since it effectively removes antioxidants from the fish. In addition‚ the neutral lipids are more easily removed than polar lipids‚ phospholipids and free
