    Experiment 4: Chemical Formula of A Hydrate

    Uploaded by

    Dental LecturesMMQ
    Experiment 4 was conducted to determine the chemical formula of an unknown hydrate. Copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate was heated and its mass was measured before and after heating. This allowed the moles of anhydrous salt and water to be calculated. It was found that the formula of the original hydrate was CuSO4 • 8H2O, containing 47.43% water. Questions about calculating the formula of another hydrate were also answered by showing the work.

    Equipment
    1-curcible tong
    2-Evapirating dish
    3-copper sulfate pen tahydrate
    4-wire gauze
    5-clay triangle
    7-bunsen burner

    Data & Calculation

    1
    m1 = mass of evaporating dish (g)  35.78

    m2 = mass of evaporating dish + hydrated salt before heating(g)  36.26

    m3 = mass of evaporating dish + anhydrous salt after heating (g)  35.82


    Moles of anhydrous salt*  Before heating the solution
     0.003
    Moles of water * was 0.024
    turquoise
    Formula of hydrated salt *  CuSO4 ۰ 8 H2O
    Observations
    Percent of water in hydrated compound * after47.43%

    white powder

    CuSO4
    Formula mass (given by instructor) 
    (159.61 g/mol)
    mass of hydrated salt (g) = m2 – m1*  0.48

    mass of anhydrous salt (g) = m3 – m1*  0.04


    mass of water driven off from the compound (g)
    0.44
    = m2 – m3 *
    *show calculation

    mass of hydrated salt (g) =( 36.26 ) – ( 35.78 )

    mass of anhydrous salt (g) =( 35.82 ) – ( 35.78 )

    mass of water driven off from the compound (g) =( 36.26 ) – ( 35.82 ) =0.44

    (1 mol of CuSO 4 )
    Moles of anhydrous salt = (  0.04) × = 0.003

    ( 18 x 8 )
    Percent of water in hydrated compound = ×100 % =47.43%

    Q2
    Mw of KAl(SO4)2=1x39.10+1x26.981+2x32.065+8x16=258.211g/mol
    ( 18 x 12 )
    Percent of water in hydrated compound = ( 258.211+12 x 18 ) ×100 % =45.55%

    Q1

    m2=mass of hydrated +m1


    m3= mass of unhydrated +m1
    mass of water = m2-m3=2.691+m1-2.259-m1=2.691-2.259=0.432g
    (1 mol of anhydrated solt )
    Moles of anhydrous salt = (  2.259) × (282) = 0.008
    ( 1mol of water )
    Moles of water of hydration= ( 0.432 ) × ( 18 )
    =0.024
    ( 0.008 ) ( 0.024 )
    Formula of hydrated salt =salt ( 0.008 )
    : H2O ( 0.008 ) → salt ۰( 3 )H2O
    ( 18 x 3 )
    Percent of water in hydrated compound = ( 282+ 3 x 18 ) ×100 % =16.07%
