When copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate (CuSO4·5 H2O) is heated, it decomposes to the dehydrated form. The waters of hydration are released from the solid crystal and form water vapor. The hydrated form is medium blue, and the dehydrated solid is light blue.  The balanced equation is CuSO4·5 H2O(s) --> CuSO4(s) + 5 H2O(g) *heat above the arrow  If 5.32 g CuSO4·5 H2O is decomposed to CuSO4, predict the mass of the remaining light blue solid.
an important flavor component of vanilla extract is vanillin C8H8O3 molar mass = 152.15 g/mol when vanillin burns in a bomb calorimeter with a heat capacity of 8.60 kJ/°C the temp increases from 25.97°C to 31.18°C. if the heat of combustion of vanillin is -3760 kJ/mol what mass of vanillin (in g) was combusted? answer to two decimal places
