To determine the number of water molecules (x) in a hydrated salt, calculate the molar mass from given concentration data using the formula: molar mass = (concentration in g/dm³) / (concentration in mol/dm³), then subtract the molar mass of the anhydrous salt and divide by the molar mass of water (18 g/mol) to find x. For example, with MgSO₄·xH₂O having 0.75 mol/dm³ concentration and 184.5 g/dm³ mass, the molar mass is 246 g/mol, yielding x = 7.
