ammonium sulphate
Calcium Sulphate is an alkaline salt.
Solution of Copper(2) sulphate is acidic in nature. This is due to the fact that in solution, copper sulphate reacts with water to produce copper(2)hydroxide and sulphuric acid: CuSO4 + H2O ------> Cu(OH)2 + H2SO4 Copper hydroxide is a weak base whereas Sulphuric acid is a very strong acid. Due to presence of a strong acid (sulphuric acid) this solution is acidic in nature. :)
No, it is a salt, of Iron and Hydrosulfuric acid
Plants that need acidic soil will benefit from ammonium sulphate. There are many ways to deliver nitrogen to plants, and almost all of them are more convenient/efficient than this fertilizer. However, it will also lower the soil pH. So if you need both, there you go. Helen W

Ammonium salts of chloride, sulphate and nitrate in aqueous solutions are sufficiently acidic in nature.

Magnesium sulphate is an inorganic salt containing magnesium, sulfur and oxygen, with the formula MgSOâ‚„

Dip a copper coin in that unknown solution And make that solution slightly acidic. After about one hour, take out the copper coin and if there are green colours deposits then there is sulphate, otherwise not.
Fertilizers are usually basic compounds but solution of some as Ammonium nitrate and sulphate are slightly acidic.
It is recommended to prepare ferrous ammonium sulphate solution in acidic medium because iron when combined with water gives the precipitates of oxides of Iron.
While I can't find a specific pH value - it is certainly acidic - as it's used to 'neutralise' alkaline soil.
Such acidic solution is a strong electrolyte and allow to conduct the electricity in presence of suitable electrodes.
