A hydrate of iron (II) sulphate, FESO, xH,0 is 20.0% iron by mass. A) What is the chemical formula for the hydrated compound? B) During this lab experiment, "splattering" of the hydrate is a common source of error. Splattering occurs when heat gets trapped under the salt and pops ejecting some of the hydrate from the beaker. Explain how splattering will affect the ratio of the anhydrous salt to water.
