A compound is a hydrate when it...

• is composed of only hydrogen and oxygen
• is a state of water
• traps water inside of the compound
• repels water from the compound

An empirical formula:

• is a formula that calculates the coefficients of a compound in a balanced equation.
• is the simplest whole-number ratio of moles of elements in the compound.
