Using the data found in question number 3, determine the empirical formula for the hydrated CuSO4salt. What is the chemical name of this dehydrated salt? 5. Suppose that after your second heating, you were impatient and did not wait until your porcelain evaporating dish to cool. Instead, you weighed it while it was still hot. How would this specifically affect the calculated percentage of water in the compound?
a) Calculate the theoretical percent water for each value of n--divide the sum of the atomic masses due to the water molecules by the sum of all the atomic masses in the hydrate, and multiply the result by 100. Complete the table. b) Compare the percent water in the hydrate with the theoretical values calculated for different values of n. Complete the table

t snowed, it melted and now the temperature is going to dip below freezing, to -2.00 °C overnight. You notice a puddle of water in the driveway of your house. You don’t want to start your morning by slipping on the ice, so you decide to put some salt down before the temperature dips. You guess the puddle contains about 10 L of water. How much salt (NaCl) would you have to throw into the water to prevent it from freezing? Molar mass of NaCl is 58.44 g/mol.
