Purpose: • Determine the formula of a hydrate from experimental data Failure to wear EYE safety GOGGLES
Hydrate = chemical with water molecules loosely bonded to it. • Anhydrous salt (removing water from a Hydrate) • Waters of hydration Copper (II) Sulfate Pentahydrate CuSO4·5H2O
Experimental Overview • Obtain mass of hydrate • Remove waters of hydration • Crucible dry • Obtain mass of anhydrous salt(hydrate with water removed)
Remove waters of hydration – Heat to a constant mass • Heat sample (crucible) • Cool sample • Obtain mass of sample
Remove waters of hydration – Crucible • Prepare crucible • Heat sample
Prepare Crucible • Heat strongly for 5 minutes • Handle hot crucible with tongs. • DO NOT TOUCH with fingers. • Burns • Skin oils • Obtain combined mass of cool crucible
Remove waters of hydration - crucible • Place ~2-3 grams of hydrate in crucible • Determine mass of hydrate, crucible Heat gentlyuntil no visible evidence of water remains • Color (sometimes) • “boiling” • Heat with blue flame ~5 minutes • When crystals turn white, heat additional 30 seconds then remove. • DO NOT overheat
Dispensing solid reagents • ALWAYS replace the lid of a jar or bottle after dispensing a reagent. • Clean scoopula between dispensing substances. • Never return excess reagent to reagent jar.
Use of the Balance • Sample cool for at least 10 minutes • Find mass again.
Data AnalysisDetermine the formula of the hydrate • Determine the mass of the waters of hydration mass of waters of hydration = mass of hydrate – mass of anhydrous salt • Convert the mass of anhydrous salt to moles of anhydrous salt. Moles of anhydrous salt = (mass of anhydrous salt)/(molar mass of anhydrous salt) • Convert the mass of the waters of hydration to moles of waters of hydration. Moles of waters of hydration = (mass of waters of hydration)/ (18.01 g/mole) • Determine the ratio of moles of water of hydration to moles of anhydrous salt. Moles of waters of hydration/moles of anhydrous salt Round ratio to an integer • Write the correct formula of the hydrate.
