The video tutorial explains how to calculate the molar mass of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate. It begins by listing the atomic masses of the elements involved: magnesium, sulfur, oxygen, and hydrogen. The tutorial then demonstrates how to calculate the molar mass of MgSO4 and adds the mass of seven water molecules to find the total molar mass of the hydrate. The final molar mass is calculated to be 246.52 grams per mole. The video concludes with a brief sign-off.
