POST-LABORATORY QUESTIONS: How will the calculated percent water be affected if the anhydrous salt absorbs little water while cooling? Explain. How will the calculated percent water be affected if the salt is heated too strongly, yielding volatile product? Explain. How will the mass of water be affected if the molar mass of water is low? Explain. How will the calculated number of moles of water be affected if the calculated mass of water is affected? Explain.
