5. Epsom salt is commonly purchased in the pharmacy for a variety of uses, anti-inflammatory, laxative, and cosmetic. Epsom salt is a hydrated salt of magnesium sulfate. If 2.000 g of Epsom salt are heated to remove the waters of hydration, 0.977 g of the anhydrous (without water) magnesium sulfate, MgSO4, were obtained. Calculate the number of waters of hydration, and write the chemical formula of the Epsom salt.

Stoichiometry

Stoichiometry is a chemical division that evaluates the quantitative content of the chemical process with the help of the reacting molecules or products taking part in the reaction. The term “stoicheion” in “Stoichiometry”, is an old Greek term for "element" whereas “metron” means "measure".
