What happens if Copper Sulphate penta-hydrate is heated?
Copper sulphate pentahydrate loses water of crystallisation and becomes white amorphous anhydrous copper sulphate.
Why blue crystals of copper sulphate on heating turn colourless?
The formula of the blue crystals of copper sulphate is CuSO4.5H2O. When they are heated mildly, the water from the crystals evaporate, giving just CuSO4. This 'anhydrous' form of copper (II) sulphate is white in colour.
What colour does hydrous copper sulphate turn when heated?
blue
When Copper Sulphate is heated what is the observation?
When copper sulfate is heated the observation is that it turns white as the water which is driven off by the heat. It is also stated that the white solid will remain and if water is added to the anhydrous copper sulfate a reaction will occur.
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.
When blue colour copper sulphate crystal are heated?
when blue Copper sulphate is heated, it loses its water part of crystallisation and tuns into white, anhydrous copper sulphate crystal

Copper sulphate pentahydrate loses water of crystallisation and becomes white amorphous anhydrous copper sulphate.

What colour does hydrous copper sulphate turn when heated?
blue
What colour is the flame of copper sulphate when heated?
it is like the color but gold more
What happens to copper sulphate when heated?
It turns into a white powder and when water is then again added to the deydrated copper sulphate it turns back to its original colour

When copper sulfate is heated the observation is that it turns white as the water which is driven off by the heat. It is also stated that the white solid will remain and if water is added to the anhydrous copper sulfate a reaction will occur.
What change will happen when copper sulphate is heated?
It turns into blueish clear crystals but only if u don't have a lid on it when it is heated!add. as it is heated, the water of crystallization will be driven off, and soon you'll have a greenish powder.
What happens when you heat anhydrous copper sulphate?
Copper sulfate is normally found in the form of blue crystals, copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate. When you heat copper sulfate pentahydrate it turns white as the water which is driven off by the heat. The white solid remaining is anhydrous copper sulfate. If you add water to the anhydrous copper sulfate an exothermic reaction occurs, you can feel the test-tube getting hot, as the blue copper sulfate pentahydrate is re-formed.
When Copper sulphate crystal is heated?
they dissolve or dilute

What is The name of the copper sulphate after being heated?
Copper Sulphate usually is found in a hydrated form (i.e., water molecules are incorporated into the crystals.) Pure copper sulphate is a pale, greenish gray color. The familiar blue color only occurs in hydrates of copper sulphate (i.e., in crystals that incorporate H20 molecules). Heating the blue crystals can drive off the water. It's still called copper sulphate after you do that. For substances like copper sulphate that naturally attract water, the adjective, anhydrous often is used to describe the pure (water free) state. If you heat copper sulphate to a temperature of 650C, it will decompose into something else. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_sulphate
