    I really enjoyed learning about anhydrous salts and hydrate compounds-- the lab helped me see it in action, too! Thanks for the good post-- it helped me really retain what i learned during the unit. The only thing I might add would be a link! Good work.

    Good explanation on the difference between a hydrate and an anhydrous salt. I would add either a picture or a link for more clarification.
