What is the percent by mass of copper sulfate, CuSO4 , in a sample of copper sulfate pentahydrate, CuSO4 5H2O?

Astudent is given a sample of a blue copper sulfate hydrate. he weighs the sample in a dry covered porcelain crucible and got a mass of 23.875 g for the crucible, lid, and sample. the mass of the empty crucible and lid was found earlier to be 22.652 g. he then heats the crucible to expel the water of hydration, keeping the crucible at red heat for 10 minutes with the lid slightly ajar. on colling, he finds the mass of crucible, lid, and contents to be 23.403 g. the sample was changed in the process to very light clue anhydrous cuso4. if there are again 100.0 g of hydrate, how many grams of cuso4 are in it? how many moles of cuso4? (hint: molar mass of cuso4 = 159.6 g / mole. what per cent of the hydrate is cuso4? you may convert the mass of cuso4 to moles.)

Nconcentration refers to the molar concentration of an ion in solution. it may be identical to, or greater or less than, the molar concentration of the compound containing the ion that was used to make the solution. for soluble salts, the molarity of a particular ion is equal to the molarity of that compound times the subscript for that ion. for example, 1 m of alcl3 is 1 m in al3+ and 3 m in cl−. 1 m of (nh4)2so4 is 2 m in nh4+ and 1 m in so42−. part a what is the concentration of k+ in 0.15 m of k2s? view available hint(s) nothing m m part b if cacl2 is dissolved in water, what can be said about the concentration of the ca2+ ion? view available hint(s) if is dissolved in water, what can be said about the concentration of the ion? it has the same concentration as the cl− ion. its concentration is half that of the cl− ion. its concentration is twice that of the cl− ion. its concentration is one-third that of the cl− ion. part c a scientist wants to make a solution of tribasic sodium phosphate, na3po4, for a laboratory experiment. how many grams of na3po4 will be needed to produce 550 ml of a solution that has a concentration of na+ ions of 0.700 m ? express your answer numerically in grams. view available hint(s) mass of na3po4 n a 3 p o 4 = nothing g provide feedback
