23. Staple this data sheet to your report for Experiment 6. Your hydrate is MgSO4H2O where x is an integer. Your compound II has a different integer than compound I, which you analyzed in lab. Data for Compound II: Mass of compound used 1.3889g Mass of water lost by heating 0.6572g Formula of the hydrate: MgSO4_H2O 6. Hydrate #2 : Data for hydrate \#2 (supplied on the data slip) Mass of hydrate before heating Mass of residue after heating (= anhydrous compound) Loss of mass upon heating (= water) A. Calculate moles of the anhydrous compound (MgSO4) : B. Caiculate moles of water: C. Determine the simplest mole ratio to find the empirical formula: Formula of the hydrate: MgSO4_2H2O D. Calculate the percentage water (by mass) and percentage MgSO4 (by mass) in this hydrate
