Copper sulfate does not produce crystals. Copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate (CuSO4•5H2O) does. The formula units are attracted to each other and form a repeating lattice.

What do copper sulphate crystals form when a hot saturated solution of copper sulphate is cooled?

Copper sulphate crystals form when a hot saturated solution of copper sulphate is cooled down. As the solution cools, the solubility of copper sulphate decreases, causing the excess copper sulphate to come out of the solution and form crystals.


Can Copper Sulphate crystals dissolve?

Yes, Copper Sulphate crystals can dissolve in water to form a blue solution.


What substance changes blue anhydrous copper sulphate crystals to white?

Water changes blue anhydrous copper sulphate crystals to white by creating hydrated copper sulphate, which is white in color.


Do copper sulphate crystals have cleavage planes?

No, copper sulphate crystals do not have cleavage planes because they are not considered minerals with cleavage. Cleavage is the tendency of a mineral to break along specific planes due to its crystal structure, which copper sulphate does not exhibit. Instead, copper sulphate crystals tend to break irregularly along their structure.


Why does one of the reactant copper carbonate is added in excess when preparing a sample of copper sulphate crystals?

Excess copper carbonate is added to ensure that all the copper sulphate is fully converted. This helps to make sure that all the starting material is used up and that the reaction goes to completion, resulting in a higher yield of pure copper sulphate crystals.


What colour are copper sulphate crystals?

very dark blue


How would the crystals of copper sulphate be prepared?

melt the copper sulfate and see what appers


How can you dissolve blue copper sulphate crystals faster?

You can dissolve blue copper sulphate crystals faster by increasing the temperature of the solvent (water), stirring the solution, or crushing the crystals to increase the surface area in contact with the solvent.


How will you obtain pure copper sulphate crystal?

boil off the solvent (usually water) until you are left with copper sulfate crystals. For getting back the copper sulphate crystals from copper sulphate solution, we have to first make super saturated solution by boiling, then allow to cool down & dried these crystals with filter paper.


Let the fourmula for the hydrous copper sulphate be CuSO4XH20 where X represents the number of water molecules write a balanced equation for the heating of the blue copper sulphate crystals?

What can you get from evaporating copper sulphate?

Evaporating a copper sulphate solution you can obtain anhydrous crystals of CuSO4. Increasing the temperature CuSO4 will be thermally dissociated.


What was left when water evaporates from copper sulphate solution?

Copper sulfate crystals remain in the container.
