Answer

$CuSO_{4}.5H_{2}O$ When Heated to $110 ^{\circ}C$ it gives $CuSO_{4}.H_{2}O$. When it is heated above $150 ^{\circ}C$ it loses all water molecule and form $CuSO_{4}$. Molar mass of $CuSO_{4}.5H_{2}O$ = 249.7 g/mol Molar mass of $CuSO_{4}.H_{2}O$ = 177.6 g/mol Molar mass of $CuSO_{4}$ = 159.6 g a) How many grams of $CuSO_{4} .H_{2}O$ could be obtained by heating 495 g of $CuSO_{4}.5H_{2}O$ to $110 ^{\circ}C$ One mole of $CuSO_{4} .5H_{2}O$ gives 1 mole of $CuSO_{4} .H_{2}O$ on heating at $110 ^{\circ}C$. No of moles of $CuSO_{4} .5H_{2}O$ = 495 g / 249.7 g = 1.982 mole So. 1.982 moles of $CuSO_{4} .5H_{2}O$ gives 1.982 mole of $CuSO_{4} .H_{2}O$ on heating at $110 ^{\circ}C$. Mass of $CuSO_{4} .H_{2}O$ = ( Molar mass of $CuSO_{4} .H_{2}O$ $ \times$ Moles of $CuSO_{4} .H_{2}O$ ) Mass of $CuSO_{4} .H_{2}O$ = (177.6 g/mol $\times$ 1.982 mol) = 352 g b) How many grams of anhydrous $CuSO_{4}$ could be obtained by heating 463 g of $CuSO_{4}.5H_{2}O$ to $180 ^{\circ}C$. One mole of $CuSO_{4} .5H_{2}O$ gives 1 mole of $CuSO_{4} $ on heating at $180 ^{\circ}C$. No of moles of $CuSO_{4} .5H_{2}O$ = 463 g / 249.7 g = 1.854 mole Mass of $CuSO_{4} $ = (159.6 g/mol $\times$ 1.854 mol) =295.89 g $\approx$ 296 g

$CuSO_{4}.5H_{2}O$ When Heated to $110 ^{\circ}C$ it gives $CuSO_{4}.H_{2}O$. When it is heated above $150 ^{\circ}C$ it loses all water molecule and form $CuSO_{4}$. Molar mass of $CuSO_{4}.5H_{2}O$ = 249.7 g/mol Molar mass of $CuSO_{4}.H_{2}O$ = 177.6 g/mol Molar mass of $CuSO_{4}$ = 159.6 g No of moles =( Given Mass / Malar Mass ) a) How many grams of $CuSO_{4} .H_{2}O$ could be obtained by heating 495 g of $CuSO_{4}.5H_{2}O$ to $110 ^{\circ}C$ One mole of $CuSO_{4} .5H_{2}O$ gives 1 mole of $CuSO_{4} .H_{2}O$ on heating at $110 ^{\circ}C$.
