100% pure metal is actually quite difficult (some may argue impossible) to achieve. Copper pipe can be produced from one of 5 alloys under the "Standard Specification for Seamless Copper Pipe". They range from being 99.9% pure copper to containing a maximum of 0.04% phosphorus. While in a laboratory it would not be considered pure, in everyday life. . . copper pipe is basically all copper.

Yes, copper sulfate is considered a pure substance because it has a definite and uniform composition of copper, sulfur, and oxygen in a fixed ratio. It can be represented by a chemical formula (CuSO4) and is not a mixture of different substances.


Is copper wire a pure substance?

No. Copper used in wiring would not qualify as laboratory-grade (pure). It would be far too expensive to manufacture and would not improve the conductivity enough to make a difference. Some copper wire is even plated. Laboratory-grade (pure) copper is a single substance, the element copper.
