Question: Explain how you will obtain the mass of water and the mass of anhydrous MgSO4 contained in the hydrate.
To obtain the mass of water and the mass of anhydrous MgSO4 contained in the hydrate, the mass of the sample can be determined by weighing the sample on a balance. The sample is then heated until all the water has been driven off, resulting in the anhydrous MgSO4. This sample can then be weighed again on the balance to obtain the mass of the anhydrous MgSO4. The difference in the initial mass of the sample and the mass of the anhydrous MgSO4 is then the mass of water that was driven off, and is equal to the mass of water contained in the hydrate.
