Why do you use copper sulphate?

A rather incomplete question. I could use copper sulphate for a number of reasons, for example as an electrolyte for copper plating, as a medium for growing impressive deep blue crystals, as a fungicide and so on. For fun, try dropping some iron filings into a fairly concentrated solution of copper sulphate and observe how the iron filings change to a copper colour and the solution changes to a green colour.


What happens when an iron nail is dipped in copper sulphate solution?

A brown layer of copper gets deposited on iron nail. This change is due to a chemical reaction between copper sulphate and iron. Also the colour of the solution changes from blue to green due to the formation of iron sulphate. This reaction can be represented by the following equation: Copper sulphate + Iron = Iron sulphate + Copper solution (CuSO4) + (Fe) = (FeSO) + (Cu)


What would you observe when blue litmus is introduced into a solution of ferric chloride?

there is no change


When zinc rod is dipped in zinc sulphate sol then concentration of solution after time will be?

The concentration of the zinc sulphate solution will not change when a zinc rod is dipped into it. This is because zinc is already present in the solution as zinc ions, so the addition of a zinc rod will not alter the concentration of zinc ions in the solution.


The blue colour of the solution fades during the electrolysis of copper sulfate. Explain why.?

Why does the colour of copper sulphate solution change when an iron nail is dipped in it? When an iron nail is placed in a copper sulphate solution, iron displaces copper from copper sulphate solution forming iron sulphate, which is green in colour. Therefore, the blue colour of copper sulphate solution fades and green colour appears.


What would you expect to observe if a sample of ammonia gas collected were bubbled into aqueous copper ii sulphate until no further change took place?

The solution would become a deep blue color as the ammonia forms coordinate covalent bonds to the copper II cations.


Why does the concentration of tin sulphate solution not change during the electrolysis?

Tin Sulphate stays the same during electrolysis because it is low down in the reactivity series, it can only be extracted by the reduction of carbon, not by electrolysis.


Is copper sulphate dissolves in water a physical or chemical change?

A physical change is different from a chemical change in two ways:1) In a physical change no new substances are made; in a chemical change new substances are made.2) A physical change can be easily reversed; a chemical change cannot be easily reversed.Dissolving copper sulphate in water does not produce a new substance. The copper sulphate solution is a mixture, not a pure substance.Also, by evaporating the water you can easily get the copper sulphate back again.So, dissolving copper sulphate is a physical change.Sometimes, though, when water is added to copper sulphate, it reacts with the water to form copper sulphate pentahydrate, which is a new compound. This would be a chemical change, but actually dissolving it is indeed a physical change only.See these sites for more information:http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/ks3bitesize/science/chemistry/chem_react_2.shtmlhttp://www.chem4kids.com/files/matter_chemphys.html


Why does the color of copper sulphate change when an iron nail dipped in it?

When an iron nail is placed in a copper sulphate solution, iron displaces copper from copper sulphate solution forming iron sulphate, which is green in colour.Therefore, the blue colour of copper sulphate solution fades and green colour appears.


What would happen if you put iron into a blue copper sulphate solution?

There would be copper deposited in the piece of iron and the solution would show a color change from pale blue to pale green.


Why does the water colour change to blue when copper sulphate was added?

Anhydrous copper(II) sulphate is white. When added to water, it forms a solution of CuSO4(aq) which is blue because of the Cu2+ ion, which is itself a transition metal ion.


Why is the vinegar diluted before titration?

1. The advantage in diluting the solution before titration is that it allows for greater accuracy in the titration; this is because the color change in the solution is easier to observe if it is a dilute solution.
