As learnt in

Molar Mass -

The mass of one mole of a substance in grams is called its molar mass.

- wherein

 Molar mass of water = 18 g mol-1

 

 

 Molar mass of CuSO_{4}.5H_{2}O=249.5 g mole ^{-1}

Molar mass of H_{2}O=18 g mole ^{-1}

Therefore, amount of water present in 249.5g \ of \ CuSO_{4}.5H_{2}O=18\times5=90 g

in \ 1g CuSO_{4}.5H_{2}O=\frac{90}{249.5}g = 0.3607g

Thus Mass of water in 1000kg of CuSO_{4}.5H_{2}O=(1000 \times 0.360 \times 1000) g= 360700g = 360.7kg
