Question 3 of 10 What does the first ionization energy represent? O A. The energy required to add an electron to a new energy level B. The energy to remove an energy level of electrons O C. The energy given off when an electron is gained D. The energy required to remove an electron from an atom SUBMIT​

D

Explanation:

The first ionization energy is the minimum energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from an atom.

Good luck!

1. for the first question, we must find the mass of the anhydrous salt, mgso₄. the molar mass for mgso₄·7h₂o is 246.47 g/mol, while that of mgso₄ is 120.37 g/mol.7.834 g mgso₄·7h₂o * 1 mol mgso₄·7h₂o/246.47 g * 1 mol mgso₄/1 mol mgso₄·7h₂o * 20.37 g mgso₄/mol = 0.647 g mgso₄

2. mass of water = mass of sample - mass of anhydrous salemass of water = 7.834 - 0.647 = 7.19 gpercent water in hydrate = 7.19/7.834 * 100 = 91.74%
