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 happens when you heat copper sulfate crystals?
they get warmer Blue Copper sulphate crystals contain a lot of water. If you heat them the water is driven off and they turn white.
What happens when water comes in contact with white copper sulphate crystals?
The white copper sulphate will become blue. This is because copper sulphate usually has 5 moles of H2O, but it has reached a temperature where all five moles will have detached themselves from the copper sulphate, so it will become anhydrous (without water) and white. Then, when water is added back to it, it returns to its original blue state.
What colour is anhydrous copper sulphate once heated?
Anhydrous copper sulfate is white powder, heating makes no difference.
How do you remove colour from copper sulphate using anhydrous?
The hydrated copper sulfate (blue color) become white after heating and releasing of water; the white anhydrous copper sulfate is obtained.

Does copper sulphate undergo any physical or chemical changes during heating?
On heating penta hydrated copper sulphate undergoes dehydration and changes colour from blue to white that means physical change but on heating it does not show a chemical change.

What type of change happens when you heat copper sulfate?
Blue Copper sulphate crystals contain a lot of water. If you heat them the water is driven off and they turn white.
Why colour of CuSO4 crystals changes on heating?
The blue copper sulfate pentahydrate loss by heating water and become an anhydrous white sulfate.
Can you give an example of observation?
When u do an experiment, there are loads of different observations. For example heating Copper 2 sulphate observations: Copper 2 sulphate is blue before heating. When u heat it, it turns white. There is some condensation. These are basically observations. It just means what can you see.
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.
Is copper oxide soluble?
copper sulphate is soluble in water - take the reaction to form blue crystals (sulphuric acid + copper carbonate) - once the water is evaporated off blue crystals are left. And if the water is evaporated off still the crystals turn white! so it must be.
