Why are common salts called hydrated salts?
Only some salts have hydrates, not all. These salts contain in the formula water of crystallization.
Do all hydrated salts change coulour when they lose their waters of crystallisation?
No, only some salts change the color after dehydration.
Why is common salt called hydrated salts?
Sodium chloride (NaCl) is not a hydrated salt.
How are hydrated salts different from anhydrous salts?
A hydrated salt has a number of waters of hydration combined to each molecule of salt whereas an anhydrous salt is one that has had its waters of hydration removed. An example of a hydrated salt is nickel sulfate hexahydrate, NiSO4·6H2O. The waters of hydration can be removed by a simple heating, resulting in NiSO4(s) + 6H2O(g).
Do all hydrated salts change colour when they lose their waters of crystallisation?
The change of color after dehydration is not a general phenomenon.
What is haydrated salts?
A hydrated salt contain water of crystallization.
What is a crystalline substance that water?
You might be thinking of hydrated salts. Examples include hydrated Copper Sulfate (CuSO4 . 5H2O)
When a beryllium salts is dissolved in water what species are present in such a solution?
probably hydrated beryllium salts like BeCl2.H20
What is crystalline substances that contains water?
You might be thinking of hydrated salts. Examples include hydrated Copper Sulfate (CuSO4 . 5H2O)
When do hydrated salts appear?
When an anhydrous salt retain water in the crystalline structure.
How are anhydrous salts prepared?
Anhydrous salts prepared by evaporating the water contained in a hydrated salt. However, anhydrous salts are non-electrolytes, meaning they can't pass an electric current.
Why hydrated salts look dry?
Hydrated salts appear dry because they have incorporated water molecules within their crystal lattice structure. This water is not easily visible on the surface of the salt, giving the appearance of dryness. However, if the hydrated salt is heated or exposed to low humidity conditions, the water molecules can be released, causing the salt to become visibly wet.
