when you have .283 moles of water and .503 moles of copper sulfate, how do you find the mole ratio between the water and coopper sulfate?
symbolipoint said:You need to multiply or divide (EXCLUSIVE OR) the ratio by 1 so that each part is a natural number, or as close to natural numbers as reasonably possible.
Borek said:I am sure that's not what you have aimed at. Multiplying or dividing by 1 doesn't change the situation
My first idea was too that sweet should look for integer ratio, but numbers shown (283/503) lead nowhere.
A hydrate is a compound that has water molecules bonded to its structure. These water molecules are known as "water of hydration" and are typically present in a specific ratio to the other molecules in the compound.
The composition of hydrates can vary, but they typically consist of an ionic compound (such as a salt) and water molecules. The ratio of water molecules to the other molecules in the compound is known as the "molar ratio."
Hydrates are formed when an ionic compound is dissolved in water. The water molecules are attracted to the charged ions in the compound and become incorporated into the crystal structure, forming a hydrate.
Studying hydrates is important for understanding their properties and behavior, as well as their potential uses in various industries. Hydrates also play a role in many natural processes, such as weathering and the water cycle.
The composition of hydrates is important because it affects their physical and chemical properties. The amount of water present in a hydrate can influence its color, melting point, solubility, and other characteristics. Understanding the composition of hydrates is crucial for predicting and controlling their behavior in various applications.
