if you dont know this your an idiot
When copper sulfate crystals are heated, they lose their water of hydration and turn into anhydrous copper sulfate, which is a white powder. The color change from blue to white signifies the removal of water molecules.
GreenAdded:There are two copper oxides, differing in color:if it is black powder, then it is copper(II) oxide CuO (cupric, more common, as in the mineral 'tenoriet')if it is red powder, then it is copper(I) oxide Cu2O (cuprous oxide, as in mineral the 'cupriet' and it occurs in 'Benedict's test' on reducing sugars)
the copper must have combined with another substance.
When iron(II) sulfate reacts with copper powder, a displacement reaction occurs where the copper replaces the iron in the compound. This results in the formation of iron powder and copper(II) sulfate. The reaction is: FeSO4 + Cu --> CuSO4 + Fe.
When HCl (hydrochloric acid) mixes with heated copper, the copper reacts with the acid to form copper(II) chloride and hydrogen gas. The reaction releases heat and the copper may also appear to be dissolved as it reacts with the acid.
When air is passed over heated copper powder, the copper powder will react with the oxygen in the air, leading to the formation of copper oxide. This reaction can result in a color change in the copper powder from its original metallic color to a reddish-brown color.
When air is passed over heated copper powder, the copper undergoes oxidation, forming copper oxide. Copper oxide is black in color, which is why the heated copper powder appears black when air is passed over it.

The metal powder that turns black when heated in an open dish is likely to be magnesium. This is due to the formation of magnesium oxide on the surface of the metal powder when it reacts with oxygen in the air during heating.
When copper sulfate is heated, it undergoes thermal decomposition, turning into copper oxide, sulfur dioxide gas, and oxygen gas. The color of the compound changes from blue to black as the heating process progresses.
When copper is heated it oxidizes. The additional oxygen molecules it takes on when oxidizes leads it to have a higher mass.
if it is heated above 1200 degrees celsius than it melts

copper sulphate and hydrogen is released.
The dehydrated copper sulfate is grayish-white.
