simply heat up the solvent (eg. water) till just below its boiling point and stir.
the heating will allow more CuSO4 to dissolve as well but as the solution cools down some of the CuSO4 will come out of solution.
you could also powder the CuSO4 to increase the surface area. This allows more contact between the solvent and the CuSO4, which increases the disolving speed.

When an iron nail is placed into a solution of copper sulfate what happens?
The iron which is a more electrochemically active metal gets plated with copper and iron sulfate is formed
Why colour of copper sulphate solution changes to light green when iron filings are added?
When an iron nail is dipped in the copper sulfate solution then iron displaces copper from the copper sulfate because iron is more reactive than copper.
What is the chemical formula for iron and copper sulfate?
The formula for iron is Fe. The formula for copper sulfate is CuSO4. The chemical equation for the reaction is Fe (s) + CuSO4 (aq) --------- Cu (s) + FeSO4(aq) The iron is a more active metal than copper therefore it replaces the copper in the copper sulfate solution.
Why can iron be used to get copper sulfate solution?
Because iron is a more reactive metal than copper.
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
How do you get copper from copper sulfate solution?
Copper can be obtained from copper sulfate solution by electroplating it onto an electrode or by adding a metal higher in the electromotive series than copper, such as iron, to the solution. The more active metal will dissolve by displacing copper in metallic form from the copper sulfate.
What does CuSO4 represent?
Cu is copper. SO4^2- is the sulfate anion. Together they make copper sulfate, or more correctly, copper(II) sulfate.
Why can iron be used to get copper from copper sulfate?
Iron can be used to get copper from Copper Sulfate because it is more reactive than Copper (higher up in the reactivity series).
How can you prepare saturated solution of CuSO4 at room temperature?
Dissolve in water more than 320 g of the anhydrous salt, at 20 0C.
Why is iron able to replace copper in copper sulfate?
Iron is more reactive than copper.
Why can iron be used to get copper from copper sulfate solution?
Iron is more reactive than copper
Is it true that more copper 2 sulfate can be added to water if the water is heated?
Until someone comes along who know about copper sulfate specifically, I can say that most soluble crystalline compounds dissolve more readily in hot water and the water (at least will still hot) will hold more of the compound. But, as it cools is can become supersaturated and some of the compound may precipitate out.
Why can iron be used used to get copper from copper sulfate solution?
Iron is more reactive than copper
What happen when copper sulphate is stored in iron vessel?
Since iron is a more active metal than copper, the iron would replace the copper in the copper sulfate, forming iron sulfate, and releasing elemental copper. The copper will not shape itself into a copper vessel, so eventually, the iron sulfate would leak out of the iron vessel, and eventually, if there is enough copper sulfate, the iron vessel will cease to exist.
575 milliliters of a copper sulfate solution contains 2 percent copper sulfate how many milliliters of the solution are copper sulfate?
You will have to assume that the 2 % is a volume fraction, then the volume of copper sulfate in the solution would be 11.5 milliliter(575 ml*(0.02). If it were a weight fraction, then you would have to have more information on the solution density.
When an iron nail is placed into a solution of copper sulfate what happens?
The iron which is a more electrochemically active metal gets plated with copper and iron sulfate is formed
What happen if add heat to anhydrous copper sulfate?
Copper sulfate can be thermally dissociated at apptox. 500 oC.
