  • Hydrated Salts

Hydrated Salts are salts containing water of crystallization. The number of water molecules is indicated by mono, di, tri, tetra, penta etc. according to the number of water of crystallization.

In naming the corresponding anhydrous salt i.e. without molecules of water, the salt is first named, followed by a full stop, and then the number of water molecules of water is written down.

Theory Question 1

1. Write down the formulae of the following: 

(i) Ozone   

Answer: O3  

 

(ii) Hydrogen sulphate   

Answer: Hydrogen Sulphate
H+1 SO4-1
⇒ HSO4

 

(iii) Magnesium tetraoxosulphate (VI)  

Answer:

Mg2+  SO42-

MgSO4 .7H2O

 

(iv) Oxygen molecule

Answer:  O2

 

(v) Bromine molecule 

Answer:  Br2

Theory Question 2

Calculate the Oxidation number of the underlined elements

(a) H2SO4  

Solution:

(1 × 2) + S + (-2 × 4) = 0

2 + S – 8 = 0

S – 6 = 0

S = +6

The oxidation number of Sulphur (S) in H2SO4  = +6

        
(b) CO2   

Solution:

C + (2 × -2) = 0

C – 4 = 0

C = +4

The oxidation number of carbon (C) in CO2  = +4

    
(c) NaH      

Solution:

Na + (-1) = 0

Na – 1 = 0

Na = +1

Note – H is an hydride; hence oxidation number is -1.

The oxidation number of sodium (Na) in NaH is +1.

  
(d) Cr2O   

Solution:

2Cr + (-2) = 0

2Cr – 2 = 0

2Cr = 2

Cr = \( \frac{2}{2} \)

Cr = +1.

The oxidation number of chromium (Cr) in Cr2O  is +1

        
(e) FeCl2  

Cl = -1

Fe + (2 × -1) = 0

Fe – 2 = 0

Fe = +2

The oxidation number of Iron (Fe) in FeCl2 is +2

     
(f) NaMnO4

Solution:

+1 + Mn + (-2 × 4) = 0

1 + Mn – 8 = 0

Mn – 7 = 0

Mn = +7

The oxidation number of Manganese (Mn) in NaMnO4 is +7

Theory Question 3

3. Give the IUPAC name of the following compounds

Answer:

(a) MgO – Magnesium oxide       
(b) Na2SO4   Sodium Sulphate
(c) FeO3  Iron (III) oxide         
(d) Al2O3  Aluminium oxide

Theory Question 4

(a) Give the symbols of the following elements:

(i) Silicon – ‘S’       
(ii) Chlorine – ‘Cl’
(iii) Silver  – ‘Ag’        
(iv) Potassium – K’

(b) Name the elements with the following symbols:

(i) Sn  – Tin       
(ii) Br – Bromine
(iii) Cr  – Chromium         
(iv) Be – Beryllium
