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
Iron rusts when in contact with water.
Answer:
Well, it could be B or D but I would say B.
Explanation:
The structure of an organelle is usually fit to its function so it is most likely B.
Hope this helps!
U-238
The number besides the U means its total molar mass. The molar mass of this element is 238
Molar mass= protons + neutrons
This means that 238= 146 + protons
Do 238 - 146
Answer is 92
