What color does copper become when it reacts with acetic acid?

Copper can turn greenish-blue when it reacts with acetic acid due to the formation of copper(II) acetate, which is a blue-green compound. This color change is a result of the oxidation of copper metal to copper ions in the presence of acetic acid.

Why does iron filings in copper sulphate solution become colourless from green after sometime?

Copper sulfate solution starts of a blue colour. When Iron metal is added to the solution a REDOX reaction begins in which the copper is reduced (gains electrons) to become copper metal and the iron is oxidised (loses electrons) to become iron ions. When the iron ions go into solution, it will change to a green colour which is the colour of iron (II) sulfate. As a general principle, a more reactive metal will displace a less reactive metal from solution by the process described above.
