∙ 12y agoA DOT like this '.' is used to note the hydrate.
Example:
ammonium oxalate monohydrate: (NH4)2C2O4.H2O
copper sulfate pentahydrate: CuSO4.5H2O

∙ 11y agohydrate just means water, so if they asked for "sodium chloride dihydrate" it would be: NaCl x 2H2O
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoFormula of the compound.x Water formula
x is the number of water molecules.
Example for copper sulfate pentahydrate: CuSO4.5H2O.
