A student performed an experiment to determine the ratio of $\text{H}_2\text{O}$ to $\text{CuSO}_4$ in a sample of hydrated copper(II) sulfate by heating it to drive off the water and weighing the solid before and after heating. The formula obtained experimentally was $\text{CuSO}_4 \bullet 5.5\text{H}_2\text{O}$ but the accepted formula is $\text{CuSO}_4 \bullet 5 \text{H}_2\text{O}$. Which error best accounts for the difference in results?
$ \textbf{(A)}\ \text{During heating some of the hydrated copper(II) sulfate was lost} \qquad$
$\textbf{(B)}\ \text{The hydrated sample was not heated long enough to drive off all the water}\qquad$
$\textbf{(C)}\ \text{The student weighed out too much sample initially.} \qquad$
$\textbf{(D)}\ \text{The student used a balance that gave weights that were consistently too high by 0.10 g }\qquad$
