Question

The relative formula mass, Mo of copper(II) sulfate, CuSO4, is 160. Which mass of sulfur is present in 160g of copper(II) sulfate?
a) 16g b) 32g c) 64g d)128g​

Answer 1

Answer:-

• Gram atomic mass of CuSO4=160g
• Molecular mass=160u

Let mass os sulphur taken be x

ATQ

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 64u+x+4(16u)=160u$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 64u+64u+x=160u$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 128u+x=160u$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=160u-128u$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=32u$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=32g$

Answer 2

Answer:

The CuSO4 has an atomic mass of 160 grammes and a molecular weight of 160 units.

Explanation:

What does sulphate mean?

• The polyatomic anion known as the sulphate or sulphate ion has the empirical formula SO24. In industrial, salts, acid derivatives, and sulphate peroxides are frequently employed. Sulfates are a common occurrence in daily living. Many sulphates are made from sulfuric acid, which is the salt of sulfur.

• It fills several biological functions throughout the body and can be found in many different forms. It supports drug, food additive, and hazardous metal detoxification and is a crucial part of extracellular matrix proteins. Additionally, it stops blood from clotting as it passes through capillaries.

• The most prevalent sulphate mineral, gypsum (CaSO4 2H2O), is also known as selenite, alabaster (a fine-grained massive form), and satin spar (a fibrous variant of gypsum) (colorless transparent gypsum crystals).
