QUESTION 2 Hydrates are lonic compounds that contain water molecules that are incorporated into the structure of the lonic compounds in a specific ratio. For example, barium chloride dihydrate has the chemical formula BaCl? 2H?O in which the two water molecules are incorporated into every unit of BaCl? lonic compound. In this experiment you will determine what are the final products that are obtained from heating of BaCl2 2H?O. Depending on the extent of heating, three different sets of products are predicted as listed below: BaCl? H?0(s) + H?O(g) BaCl? 2H?O(s) BaCl? 2H?O(s) BaCl? 2H?O(s) BaCl2(s) + 2H?O(g) Bao(s) + H?O(g) + 2HCl(g) Reaction 1 Reaction 2 Reaction 3 QUESTION If the mass of BaCl? 2H2O(s) sample subject to thermal decomposition was 2.6220 g, what is the theoretical yield of BaCl2(s) if Reaction 2 occurred. The molar mass of BaCl? 2H?O(s) is 244.20 g; the molar mass of BaCl2 H?O(s) is 226.20 g; the molar mass of BaCl2(s) is 208.20 g. For your answer, type in only the number that must carry five significant figures. Do not type in the unit that is g.
