COPPER SULFATE HYDRATE ANALYSIS [LAB]

This is a lab demonstration for the analysis of a hydrate. Copper(II) sulfate hydrate is a blue crystalline material. When it is heated, it undergoes thermal decomposition to release bound water molecules in the form of steam. The anhydrous copper(II) sulfate that results is white. 0:00 Introduction 0:27 Part 1. Laboratory procedure and data 04:53 Part 2. Calculations of data Step 1: Weigh your empty crucible and lid 0:33 Step 2: Transfer CuSO₄ hydrate to the crucible 00:52 Step 3: Weigh crucible and lid filled with hydrate salt 01:30 Step 4: Heat the uncovered crucible 10 minutes 02:36 Step 6: Cool covered crucible 10 minutes 03:22 Step 7: With crucible and lid filled with anhydrous salt 04:30 Calculations of formula of hydrate: 04:53 calculate the molar mass for water and your anhydrous salt you are studying. ・Calculate the molar mass of water 06:20 ・weight for anhydrous copper(II) sulfate 07:05 Step 1: Calculate mass of H₂O lost 08:19 Step 2: Calculate mass of CuSO₄ 09:13 Step 3: Calculate moles of H₂O 10:55 Step 4: Calculate moles of CuSO4 12:43 Step 5: Calculate the ratio 14:22 Step 6: Round the ratio to the nearest whole number 15:47 The balanced chemical equation then becomes: CuSO₄・6 H₂O (s) → CuSO₄(s) + 6 H₂O (g) Name the hydrate: copper(II) sulfate hexahydrate Thanks for watching and please subscribe.
