Most fish that live in the ocean, take in saltwater through their mouths. They then filter out the air (which is how they get oxygen) and blow the water out of their gills. When they need water they start with the same by taking the saltwater into their mouths but, this time they filter out the oxygen AND salt and just keep the clean water. Explaining how they filter this would take to long so this is just the simple answer. I hope it was useful and informant.

How do you calculate the percent water in a hydrate?

To calculate the percent water in a hydrate, you first determine the mass of water in the hydrate by subtracting the mass of the anhydrous compound from the mass of the hydrate. Then, divide the mass of water by the total mass of the hydrate and multiply by 100 to get the percentage.
