The difference is that anhydrous copper(II) sulfate has no water of crystallisation. The anhydrous variant is a white solid while the hydrated variant is blue. Also, the chemical formula for hydrated copper(II) sulfate (or copper sulfate pentahydrate) is CuSO4.5H2O while that of the anhydrous one is CuSO4.

When added to copper sulphate what colour is anhydrous copper sulphate?
anhydrous copper sulphate is white. when water is added it turns blue, in essence it can be used to detect the presence of water. hope this helps!!!!!!!!!!!
What equipment would be needed to prepare copper sulphate crystals?
Anhydrous or hydrated copper sulphate crystals? And from what?
What happens if Copper Sulphate penta-hydrate is heated?
Copper sulphate pentahydrate loses water of crystallisation and becomes white amorphous anhydrous copper sulphate.
What colour is anhydrous copper sulphate once heated?
Anhydrous copper sulfate is white powder, heating makes no difference.
Does hydrated copper sulphate increase the mass?
Hydrated Copper Sulphate is CuSO4.5H2O and Anhydrous copper sulphate is just CuSO4. Therefore, hydrated copper sulphate has extra mass due to water molecules present in it.
Is anhydrous copper sulphate reversible?
is anhydrous copper sulphate reversible Yes, anhydrous copper sulphate is reversible just add water
How do you prepare copper sulphate solution?
Add anhydrous copper sulphate to distilled water.
When added to copper sulphate what colour is anhydrous copper sulphate?
anhydrous copper sulphate is white. when water is added it turns blue, in essence it can be used to detect the presence of water. hope this helps!!!!!!!!!!!
What are a few examples of anhydrous crystals?
Anhydrous copper sulphate is a paler blue compared to hydrous copper sulphate. See the related link for further information.

What happens if Copper Sulphate penta-hydrate is heated?
Copper sulphate pentahydrate loses water of crystallisation and becomes white amorphous anhydrous copper sulphate.
What colour is copper sulphate and iron?
The anhydrous copper(II) sulfate is white, the pentahydrate is blue.Iron is gray.
Test for presence of water in anhydrous copper sulphate?
In the presence of water the white anhydrous copper sulfate become blue.
What colour is anhydrous copper sulphate once heated?
Anhydrous copper sulfate is white powder, heating makes no difference.
What is the definition of relative formula?
formula of copper sulphate anhydrous
Does hydrated copper sulphate increase the mass?
Hydrated Copper Sulphate is CuSO4.5H2O and Anhydrous copper sulphate is just CuSO4. Therefore, hydrated copper sulphate has extra mass due to water molecules present in it.
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
