Anhydrous calcium sulfate [CaSO 4 ]; anhydrous means without any water in its lattice, will absorb water
Question:
Anhydrous calcium sulfate [CaSO4]; anhydrous means without any water in its lattice, will absorb water (will hydrate) to give calcium sulfate hydrate. The water molecules end up in “holes” or spaces in the ionic lattice. This process releases a considerable amount of energy in the form of heat. Explain why.
