Epsom salts are hydrates of magnesium sulfate. the formula for epsom salt is mgso4·7h2o. if a 7.834 g sample is heated until constant mass is obtained, what is the mass of the anhydrous magnesium sulfate? what percent of the hydrate is water?

Problem page combustion of hydrocarbons such as pentane ( c5 h12 ) produces carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse gas." greenhouse gases in the earth's atmosphere can trap the sun's heat, raising the average temperature of the earth. for this reason there has been a great deal of international discussion about whether to regulate the production of carbon dioxide.(a) write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the combustion of liquid pentane into gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water. (b) suppose 0.350 kg of pentane are burned in air at a pressure of exactly 1 atm and a temperature of 20.0 degree c. calculate the volume of carbon dioxide gas that is produced. be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Nebulae are enormous clouds in outer space. they are made mostly of hydrogen gas, helium gas, and dust. some nebulae glow brightly, while others do not. the stars that people see are huge, bright balls of glowing gas. they are made mostly of hydrogen and helium. which statement correctly describes other ways in which nebulae and stars are different? a. stars can form inside a nebula but a nebula can never be produced by any star. b. a star always has a higher density than a nebula. c. stars can never form inside a nebula but a nebula can be produced by any star. d. a nebula always has a higher density than a star.

What amount of heat is exchanged when 106.2 grams of substance y goes from a liquid at 35 degrees celsius to a solid at the same temperature? melting point of substance y = 35 degrees c; δhvaporization = 3.67 j/mol; δhfusion = 3.30 j/mol. mwsubstance y = 28.22 g/mol. −12.4 j −3.51 x 102 j 1.24 x 101 j 351 j
