Hydrated sulphate of a divalent metal of...

Hydrated sulphate of a divalent metal of atomic weight 65.4 loses 43.85% of its weight on dehydration. Find the number of molecules of water of crystallization in the formula of hydrated salt.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
7

`MSO_(4).xH_(2)O underset("Dehydration")rarr MSO_(4) + xH_(2)O`, Molar mass of `MSO_(4).xH_(2)O = 65.4 + 32 + 64 + 18 x`
`:. (18 x)/(161.4 + 18 x) xx 100 = 43.85, 1800 x = 7077.39 + 789.3 x rArr x = 7`
