Given: One mole of a sample of hydrated sodium sulphide contains 162g of water of crystallisation.

To find: We have to find the formula of the compound.

Solution:

The chemical formula of sodium sulphide is NaS.

It contains 162g of water of crystallisation.

Now we know that molecular weight of 1 mole of water is 18 gram.

So, 162 gram will contain 162/18=9 moles of water.

Thus the compound contains 9 moles of water.

The formula of the compound is NaS.9H_2O.

The correct option is D NaS.9H_2O.
