What does hydrous refer to?
Water.
Is Heating a hydrous salt to obtain an anhydrous salt a chemical or physical change?
if you mean epsom salts (magnesium sulfate) then heating it will result in a decomposition reaction, where magnesium oxide (s) and sulfur trioxide (g) is formed. The decomposition reaction is therefore a chemical change.
What is an example of a salt water plant?
Salt water is an example of a homogeneous mixture.
What melts the solvent or solute?
Dissolving is not the same thing as melting. When you dissolve salt in water, for example, neither the salt nor the water melts. In the example of salt in water, salt is the solute and water is the solvent. The salt (which is the solute) is what dissolves (but does not melt).
What is a physical change for salt?
For example melting and boiling of salt are physical processes.
What are the components of natron salt?
A mineral of hydrous sodium carbonate, Na2CO3·10H2O, often found crystallized with other salts.
Does a hydrous compound contain water?
A hydrous compound does contains water. The prefix "hydro" means water, therefore, a hydrous compound means a water compound.
What does hydrous refer to?
Water.
What is a hydrous compound?
A compound bonded with water.
What is metamorphic crystal growth?
Minerals can form in metamorphic rock from the loss of water during compression. Hydrous minerals are replaced with non-hydrous minerals.
Is Heating a hydrous salt to obtain an anhydrous salt a chemical or physical change?
if you mean epsom salts (magnesium sulfate) then heating it will result in a decomposition reaction, where magnesium oxide (s) and sulfur trioxide (g) is formed. The decomposition reaction is therefore a chemical change.
Is flourite a mica mineral?
No, it does not have perfect cleavage and it is not hydrous.
What is hydrous aluminum silicate?
it is the primary clay minerals
What is the difference between a hydrous compound and an anhydrous?

What colour does hydrous copper sulphate turn when heated?

Is salt water is an example of a compound?
No. Salt water is an example of a solution, in which salt is the solute and water is the solvent. Solutions are mixtures, not compounds.
