correct answer

@ Draft Response You are given an unknown hydrated metal salt containing chloride ion, MCl2-n H20. a. You dissolve 0.500 g of this salt in water and add excess silver nitrate solution, AgNOs, to precipitate the chloride ion as insoluble silver chloride, AgCl. After filtering, washing, drying, and weighing, the AgCl is found to weigh 0.562 g. What is the mass percent chloride in the metal salt? Mass percent : 27.8 % b. A second 0.700 g sample is dehydrated to remove water of hydration. After drying, the sample is found to weigh 0.305 g. What is the mass percent water in the metal salt? Mass percent : 56.43 % c. The metal cation has a charge of two. What is the molar mass of the metal? | Molar mass : 40.2 g/mol | What is the identity of the metal? | Car2+ Chemical Equation: Ca?* Determine the complete empirical formula of the hydrated metal salt. - CaCl,-6H,0 A The answer is not a valid chemical equation. Chemical Equation: CaCl, -6 H,O
