there would be a single replacement reaction where the copper forms on the top of the zinc and the blue color of the copper sulfate would get lighter and eventually you would end up with zinc sulfate and copper

Zinc displace copper from sulfate; the solution become colourless and copper is precipitated.

Does copper sulfate have a concentration?

A copper sulphate solution can have different concentrations depending on how much copper sulphate crystals have been added into the water. A typical 1 molar solution of copper sulphate would need 250g of CuSO4, mixed with 700ml of H2O, with 10ml of H2SO4 added with another 290ml of water.


What would be seen in a reaction between copper sulphate and magnesium?

magnesium+copper sulphate =no reaction


What would happen if you added copper sulphate to water at room temperature?

Copper sulfate is soluble in water and dissociated in ions (Cu2)+ and (SO4)2-.


What equipment would be needed to prepare copper sulphate crystals?

Anhydrous or hydrated copper sulphate crystals? And from what?


What would you see if you dropped a piece of magnesium ribbon into some copper sulphate solution in a test tube?

The ribbon starts to break up at the surface, a brown solid forms(copper metal), and the solution eventually becomes colourless (from losing copper ions)


What will happen if copper metal is added to iron sulfate solution?

nothing will happen as i have done this experiment. I think it is because iron is more reactive than copper, so the copper can't take away the sulphate. but if you added the iron to a copper sulphate solution the product would be iron sulphate this reaction is called displacment.

Would copper sulphate and sodium react?

I DONT KNOW


Iron plus copper sulphate equals iron sulphate plus copper - what change would you see on the surface of the nail?

The copper will appear on the surface of the nail, so it will be different in colour-it'll be like copper.


What liquid would you use in the electroplating bath to coat zinc with copper?

copper sulphate solution


Would you expect sodium sulphate or copper sulphate to be colourless?

Copper is a transition metal- these often give rise to colored salts. Sodium is an s block metal these are generally colorless. The reason is that transition metals ions have electrons in an outer d orbitals that can be excited to higher energy levels by visible light.
