3. In an experiment like the one you performed in lab, a hydrated CuSO4 salt was heated and thus
dehydrated. Determine the % H2O by weight in the hydrated CuSO4 salt.

mass of empty dish 43.571 g
mass of dish + hydrated salt 44.326 g
mass of dish + dehydrated salt 44.054 g


4. Using the data found in question number 3, determine the empirical formula for the hydrated CuSO4
salt. What is the chemical name of this dehydrated salt?


5. Suppose that after your second heating, you were impatient and did not wait until your porcelain
evaporating dish to cool. Instead, you weighed it while it was still hot. How would this specifically affect
the calculated percentage of water in the compound?
