Post-Lab Question:
Spectroscopic satellite analysis of the composition of the moon was completed during the Clementine and subsequent NASA missions. The data indicates that water is present on the moon and there may be enough to allow human colonization. The water is tied up in rock (hydrates) and as ice. A notable hydrate for its high water content is Glauber’s salt, sodium sulfate decahydrate. If a human were to require the equivalent of 2 liters of water per day, how many kilograms of Glauber’s salt would need to be processed per month to meet one person’s need. Assume a month is 30 days and that all of the water in the salt is recovered in the process. Glauber’s Salt is 56% water by weight.
