A5.000 g sample of niso4 h2o decomposed to give 2.755 g of anhydrous niso4. what is the formula of the hydrate? what is the full chemical name for the hydrate? what is the molar mass of the hydrate? niso4•_h2o what is the mass % of water in the hydrate?

The size (radius) of an oxygen molecule is about 2.0 ×10−10m. make a rough estimate of the pressure at which the finite volume of the molecules should cause noticeable deviations from ideal-gas behavior at ordinary temperatures (t= 300k ). assume that deviatons would be noticeable when volume of the gas per molecule equals the volume of the molecule itself.

Why is any chemical reaction always balanced? give reasons and explain the easiest way to solve the balancing problems in chemical equations with stoichiometric coefficients upto 20 as hit and trial doesn't always work. give full reasoning
