It is often possible to change a hydrate into an anhydrous compound by heating it to drive off the water (dehydration). A 37.84 gram sample of a hydrate of MgBr, was heated thoroughly in a porcelain crucible, until its weight remained constant. After heating, 23.84 grams of the anhydrous compound remained. What is the formula of the hydrate? Use a period instead of a dot in the formula of the hydrate.

About two centuries ago, Benjamin Franklin showed that 1 teaspoon of oil would cover about 0.5 acre of still water. If you know that 1.0 × 104 m2 = 2.47 acres and that there is approximately 5 cm3 in a teaspoon, what is the thickness of the 0.5-acre layer of oil? How might this thickness be related to the sizes of molecules?
