    BaCl₂.2H₂O

    Barium Chloride Dihydrate

    Proof:

    Molecular Mass of BaCl₂ = 208.23 g/mol

    Molecular Mass of 2 moles of H ₂O = 36 g/mol

    Total Mass of BaCl₂.2H₂O = 244.23 g/mol

    %age of BaCl₂:

    = 208.23 / 244.23 * 100 = 85.25 % ≈ 85.3 %

    %age of H₂O:

    = 36 / 244.23 * 100 = 14.74 % ≈ 14.7 %
