sinX= 4. You are given an unknown hydrated metal salt containing the bromide ion with the general formula of MBr2 n H2O. From previous experimentation, the mass % of Br was determined to be 51.83 % by mass Br. a. A 1.000 g sample of the hydrated metal salt is dehydrated to remove water of hydration. After drying, the sample is found to weigh 0.650 g. What is the mass percent water in the metal salt? b. What is the mass percent of water in the metal salt? C. Based on the formula of the hydrate, MBr2 values determined in parts a and b, determine the molar mass and identity of H20, and the mass percent n the metal. bi d. Determine the number of waters of hydration, n, in the hydrated metal salt, MBr2 n H2O. Write out the full empirical formula of the hydrated metal salt. 10
