Best Answer

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.

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.
