Best Answer

The pink precipitate is finely divided copper, reduced to its metallic form by displacement from copper sulfate by iron, which is higher in the electromotive series than copper. Iron sulfate remains in solution.

When a shiny grey zinc granule is added to a blue solution of copper sulfate a pink brown solid mass is formed. what is it?

It would be copper, which is a pink-brown color. We can know this because zinc is more reactive than copper, so the zinc will replace the copper in the copper sulfate solution, and copper metal will precipitate out of the solution. This is a single replacement reaction, also called a single displacement reaction.Zn(s) + CuSO4(aq) --> Cu(s) + ZnSO4(aq)You can find a metal reactivity series at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactivity_series


Does the mass of water increase when you add copper sulfate?

The mass of water does not increase when copper sulfate is added to the water, unless the copper sulfate is hydrated. The mass of the mixture of water and copper sulfate, of course, does increase.

If the sodium sulfate and barium nitrate are both in solution in water, a precipitate of barium sulfate will be formed, because this salt is much less soluble in water than barium nitrate, sodium sulfate, or sodium nitrate.
