Expert Solution
Step 1: Determination of number of grams of Copper present in 35.67 g of CuSO4.

Mass of Copper(II) sulfate = 35.67 grams

For determination of number of grams of Copper present in 35.67 g of Copper(II) sulfate we determine the molar mass of Copper(II) sulfate .

The molecular formula of Copper(II) sulfate is CuSO4.

Molar mass of CuSO4 is :

   CuSO4 = 1×Atomic mass of Cu + 1×Atomic mass of S + 4×Atomic mass of OCuSO4 = 1×63.546g + 1×32.065g + 4×15.999gCuSO4 = 63.546 g + 32.065 g + 63.996 gCuSO4 =159.607 g

Therefore molar mass of CuSO4 is 159.607 grams.

There is one Cu atom present in CuSO4. So, if 159.607 grams of CuSO4 contains 63.546 grams of Copper then 35.67 grams of CuSO4 will contain is given by:

 159.607 g of CuSO4 contains  63.546 grams of Copper                                               35.67 g  of CuSO4 contains xx= 63.546 grams of Copper×35.67 g  of CuSO4 contains159.607 g of CuSO4 containsx=14.20 g of CuSO4

Therefore, 35.67 g of CuSO4  contains 14.20 grams of Copper.
