Write balanced chemical equations to correspond to each of the following descriptions: (a) When sulfur trioxide gas reacts with water, a solution of sulfuric acid forms. b) Boron sulfide, B2S3(s), reacts violently with water to form dissolved boric acid, H3BO3, and hydrogen sulfide gas. (c) Phosphine, PH3(g), combusts in oxygen gas to form water vapor and solid tetraphosphorus decaoxide. (d) When solid mercury(II) nitrate is heated, it decomposes to form solid mercury(II) oxide, gaseous nitrogen dioxide, and oxygen. (e) Copper metal reacts with hot concentrated sulfuric acid solution to form aqueous copper(II) sulfate, sulfur dioxide gas, and water.
Calculate the mass of copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate needed to prepare 0.600M stock solution of copper (II) from solid copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate, CuSO45H2O. Show work.
When blue copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate is heated, it completely loses the water of hydration and forms a white solid.
How many moles of water are lost when 0.0182 mole of copper (ii) sulfate pentahydrate is heated? Please explain thank you!!
