A chemist attempts to prepare some very pure crystals of borax (sodium tetraborate, Na2B407 10 H20) by dissolving 100 g of Na2B407 in 200 g of boiling water. He then carefully cools the solution slowly until some Na2B407 10 H20 crystallizes out. Calculate the grams of Na2B407 10 H20 recovered in the crystals per 100 g of total initial solution (Na2B407 plus H2O), if the residual solution at 55°C after the crystals are removed contains 12.4% Na2B407

Question
A chemist attempts to prepare some very pure crystals of borax (sodium tetraborate, Na2B407 • 10 H20) by dissolving 100 g of Na2B407 in 200 g of boiling water. He then carefully cools the solution slowly until some Na2B407 10 H20 crystallizes out. Calculate the grams of Na2B407 10 H20 recovered in the crystals per 100 g of total initial solution (Na2B407 plus H20), if the residual solution at 55°C after the crystals are removed contains 12.4% Na2B407
