Estimation of crystallization water in aqueous copper
sulfate
CuSO4⇾CuO+SO3

Crystallization water: is defined as water that exist in water in the


form of crystals ,The crystal are blue when the water pentode is
CuSO4. 5H2O while it has the form a powder with a white to
grayish color when in anhydrous form. The copper sulfate
compound dissolves well in water at 6.36 gm per 100 ml of
water at ℃. It dissolves with difficulty in methanol but it is not
biodegradable in ethanol.

Procedure
1-Wash the crucible well and then put it in the drying oven

2-measuring the weight of the crucible while it is empty

3-measuring the weight of the crucible with aqueous copper


sulfate

4-Put the crucible in the drying oven for half an hour until the
powder turns with a white to grayish color

5-Measuring the weight of the crucible with the powder and


performing calculations
Questions
1-Define Water Of Crystallization

A\Water of crystallization refers to water molecules that are tightly


bound within the crystal lattice of a substance. These water
molecules are not simply physically associated with the crystal but
are chemically bonded to the compound.These water molecules
become an integral part of the crystal,forming a unique bond that
transcends the conventional liquid-solid interaction.

2-Why Does The Flask Cool in a Dryer After Heating It?

A\allowing a flask to cool in a dryer after heating is essential for


ensuring safety, maintaining the integrity of the glassware, and
preventing unwanted chemical reactions or moisture issues.
3-why is it necessary to heat the flask while it is empty?

A\ a-Baseline Temperature:Heating an empty flask first helps


establish a baseline temperature. This is important for experiments
where precise temperature control is required.
b-Hazard Reduction: Heating an empty flask reduces the risk of
dangerous reactions that could occur if volatile substances are present.
c-Material Integrity: Heating an empty flask gradually allows the
glass to expand uniformly. If a flask is heated too quickly or unevenly
whilecontaining a substance, it can lead to thermal shock, which may
cause the glass to crack or shatter.

4-What Do You Conclude From The Following Statement:


{CuSO4.5H2O Cannot Be Heated To a Temperature Above
650℃ To Expel Water From It}

A\ As the temperature increases beyond 250 °C, CuSO₄ begins


to Decompose further. At approximately 650 °C the compound
can start to break down into copper(II) oxide (CuO) and sulfur
trioxide (SO₃), which can be a hazardous gas.
5-Can Water be estimated in the following substances in the same way?

A\it is possible to estimate the crystallization water in substances likesodium


tetraborate decahydrate (Na₂B₄O₇·10H₂O) and magnesium sulfate
heptahydrate (MgSO₄·7H₂O) and barium chloride dihydrate (BaCl₂·2H₂O)
using methods similar to those applied for aqueous copper sulfate
(CuSO₄·5H₂O).

6-Calculate The Purity Of Salt(Modle)Used In The Experiment

A\ Purity Percentage =Pure Weight(g) / Weight of Sample(g)]

Purity Percentage =[0.02 g /0.052g] x 100

Purity Percentage =0.3846 x 100


Purity Percentage =38.46 ≈ 38.5 %

7-Calculate The Number Of Water Molecules in the Salt Used

PracticallyA\ No. Of Molecules=[Weight(g)/M.Wt(g/mol)] x 6.022 x 1023


No. Of Molecules=[0.02g/18(g/mol)] x 6.022 x 1023
No. Of Molecules=6.691 x 1020
Estimation of crystallization water in aqueous copper
sulfate
1\ Weight of the Crucible = X gm

==> Weight of the Crucible = 31.71 gm

2\ Weight of water salt = 0.052 gm

3\ Weight of the Crucible + Weight of water salt = Y gm

Weight of the Crucible + Weight of water salt = 31.76 gm

4\ Weight of the Crucible + Weight of water salt after drying = Z gm

Weight of the Crucible + Weight of water salt after drying = 31.74 gm

5\ Weight of Crystallization water in the salt =Y-Z

Weight of Crystallization water in the salt =31.76 - 31.74 = 0.02 g
