Calculate the percentage of water of crystallisation in MgSO⁴ 7H²O

Formula of EPSOM salt = MgSO4.7H2O

molecular mass of MgSO4.7H2O = atomic mass of Mg + atomic mass of S + 4 × atomic mass of O + 7 { 2 × atomic mass of H + atomic mass of O }

= 24 + 32 + 4× 16 + 7{ 2 × 1 + 16 } g/mol

= (24 + 32 + 64+ 126 ) g/mol

= 246 g/mol

molecular mass of total water = 7 × ( 2× atomic mass of H + atomic mass of O )

= 7 × 18 = 126 g/mol

now ,

% mass of H2O in EPSOM salt = {total molar mass of H2O/molar mass of Epsom salts }× 100

= {126/246 } × 100

= 12600/246

= 51.21 %

i have done it hope it helps

56.8 g

Explanation:

Your first conversion factor is the molar mass of H2O to convert from grams of water to moles. Your second conversion factor is the mole ratio of 2 mol C2H10 for every 10 mol H2O. Your last conversion factor is the molar mass of C2H10 to convert from moles back to grams.

150. g H2O • (1 mol H2O / 18.02 g H2O) • (2 mol C2H10 / 10 mol H2O) • (34.1 g C2H10 / 1 mol C2H10) = 56.8 g C2H10
