How do you neutralize the copper sulfate you put in your pool to get rid of it?

I don't have an answer on this one yet. You never should have used that product in your pool. That is for sewer lines. It may dissipate over time or at least be diluted some with rain and refill water.

sorry to have to say this, but i think the best way to get rid of it is to dump it and refill, or do a partial dump and refill. there are applications for copper sulfate, but there are better alternatives. so i would have to agree with the above comment, 'dont use it in the first place(or something to that effect)'.
i am not sure, at the same time, if rain water will dilute it, but that does sound like a more cost effective option, if it does dilute it.

∙ 14y agoSulfate ions are neutral, so needn't to be neutralised.
Cu2+ are slightly acidic (though not as much as Fe3+ or Al3+).
Cu(H2O)62+ + H2O <--> Cu(OH)(H2O)5+ + H3O+
It could be neutralised with hydroxide OH- , the disadvantage is a possible forming of the insoluble copper hydroxide Cu(OH)2.
So neutralising with NH3 would be a better idea:
the cupric-ammonia complex ion Cu(NH3)22+ is soluble (and nicely blue colored)

What would happen if you put calcium wity copper sulphate?
Calcium + Copper sulfate ----> Calcium sulfate + Copper It is a single displacement reactions. The products are Calcium Sulfate (white, insoluble) and fillings of copper(reddish-brown).
What happens if you put copper metal into a solution of aluminum sulfate?
Nothing will happen. Displacement reaction only happens when the element is more reactive than the salt solution. An example will be the otherwise. If you put aluminum metal into a solution of Copper (II) Sulfate. The aluminum metal will displace copper metal and you will have a solution of Aluminum Sulfate and copper metal. As long the element you put into the salt solution is more reactive than the cation of the solution, it will displace the metal.
How do you separate copper sulfate and sulfur?
Copper sulphate is soluble, sulphur is insoluble. Dissolve the mixture in water. The copper sulphate will dissolve, the sulphur will not dissolve. Filter. The blue soluble of copper sulphate will passthrough the filter paper. The sulphur (yellow) will remain in the filter paper.
Why does copper ii sulfate react with aluminum?
Yes. Iron is more reactive than copper, so will displace it from a compound. If you put a piece of iron into copper sulfate solution, it will be soon coated with a deposit of orangey red copper.CuSO4 + Fe --> FeSO4 + Cu
What happens if you put copper into silver sulfate?
Silver has a higher reduction potential than copper (ie silver "wants" to be in reduced form - metalic form - "more" than copper does). If silver METAL (Ag0) is added to a solution of CuSO4, nothing happens since silver is already reduced and it wants to stay that way.
What happens when gold is put in copper sulfate?
Any reaction occur when gold is put in copper sulfate.
What will happen if you put an iron nail in a copper sulfate solution?
The iron will react with the copper sulfate, producing iron sulfate and elemental copper.
How much copper sulfate to put in a 18'x4' pool?
1g per cubic meter...so 28000 litre is 28 grams
What would happen if you put calcium wity copper sulphate?
Calcium + Copper sulfate ----> Calcium sulfate + Copper It is a single displacement reactions. The products are Calcium Sulfate (white, insoluble) and fillings of copper(reddish-brown).
What happens when you put copper sulphate in water?
The copper sulfate dissolves and turns into a royal-blue color.
If i put on ion purifying solution swimmers shampoo without sulfate and i have a brizillian keratin treatment can i go in the pool if i put it in before?
If it is not sulfate free, you shouldn't use it.
Can you put copper sulfate in a fish tank then eat the fish?
WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT!?!?!? And no it would not work

What happens when copper sulfate and magnesium react?
There is a slight color change...We did this in a lab in class. It tarnished slightly. This may be incorrect. I'm not sure...
Why when you heat up copper sulphate does it turn blue?
You have this backwards. Copper sulfate, CuSO4.5H2O is blue. When it is gently heated, it loses water and turns white.CuSO4.5H2O --> CuSO4 + 5 H2O.The white substance is anhydrous copper sulfate. If you put water on it it turns blue again.
What will happen if you put copper sulfate on a turtle?
Probably a very dilute solution of copper sulphate act as a desinfecting agent; but the copper sulphate is toxic. It is more sure to avoid this experiment.
