Copper ethanoate in solution consists of two parts: Ethanoate ion: (CH3 - COO)- (to note this has a negative charge on the COO represented by the - and a bond after CH3 also represented by a -) This has only single bonds from both oxygens to the carbon, the charge is then spread across the two oxygens and the carbon making the molecule polar and soluble Copper ion: Cu2+ ions have a 2+ charge and so are in solution (generally anything with a charge will be in solution) When this is dehydrated the copper ethanoate is formed as a precipitate using 2 ethanoate ions and 1 copper ion to give a charge of 0 throughout the molecule. The formulae of this is Cu(CH3COO)2 (the 2 is supposed to be subscript) This is an answer to another question to which my answer also fits this one. So yes copper ethanoate is soluble.

Is copper sulphate soluble in methylated spirits?

Copper sulfate is not soluble in methylated spirits. Methylated spirits, which is primarily ethanol mixed with a small amount of methanol, is not a suitable solvent for dissolving copper sulfate, which is better dissolved in water.


Does copper sulfate dissolve in alcohol?

Yes, copper sulfate is soluble in alcohol. When added to alcohol, copper sulfate will dissolve and form a homogeneous solution. However, the solubility may vary depending on the concentration of both the copper sulfate and alcohol.


What anion barium salt is insoluble in water but its copper salt is soluble?

Barium sulfate is insoluble in water, while copper sulfate is soluble. This is due to differences in the solubility rules for these ions in water. Barium sulfate forms a highly insoluble precipitate, while copper sulfate dissociates into its ions in water.


Is copper sulphate dissolve in kerosene?

No, copper sulfate is not soluble in kerosene. Kerosene is a non-polar solvent, while copper sulfate is a polar compound, which makes them immiscible.


What happens when water and white copper sulphate mix together?

When water and white copper sulfate mix together, the copper sulfate will dissolve in the water, resulting in a blue solution. This is because copper sulfate is a water-soluble compound.


Why can filtration be used to separate the copper sulphate from the sulphur?

Filtration can be used to separate copper sulfate from sulfur because copper sulfate is soluble in water, while sulfur is not. By adding water to the mixture and then filtering, the insoluble sulfur will remain on the filter paper, while the soluble copper sulfate will pass through as part of the filtrate.
