Percent Water in a Hydrate: Identification of an Unknown—ChemTopic™ Lab Activity

firewatch

Some ionic compounds called hydrates are crystallized from aqueous solutions and contain water molecules as part of their crystal structure. With the Percent Water in a Hydrate: Identification of an Unknown—ChemTopic™ Lab Activity, analyze the percent water in a crystalline hydrate through heating and measurement, and identify it from a list of possible unknowns.
