How do you separate copper sulfate and sulfur?

Copper sulphate is soluble, sulphur is insoluble. Dissolve the mixture in water. The copper sulphate will dissolve, the sulphur will not dissolve. Filter. The blue soluble of copper sulphate will passthrough the filter paper. The sulphur (yellow) will remain in the filter paper.

How do you formulate Cheshunt compound a fungicide.?

According to the Royal Horticultural Society, it is a mixture of ammonium carbonate and copper sulphate. I think the relative proportions are probably a trade secret, but since most fungicide control compounds include copper sulphate and one other ingredient, you can likely assume that the copper sulphate is the most important part. Thus a weak mixture of copper sulphate would likely work OK as a replacement. Bordeaux mixture uses copper sulphate and hydrated lime. Hydrated lime (calcium carbonate) is a kinder and more easily sourced ingredient than ammonium sulphate so I would try that before Cheshunt compound. Copper sulphate can be sourced from equestrian supply shops because it is used as a foot bath for horses (again for its antifungal properties). Be careful using it - it is poisonous to fish so NEVER put it down the drain or on land near a river.... so only mix up what you need and keep it away from children.

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.


Is copper sulphate dissolves in water a physical or chemical change?

A physical change is different from a chemical change in two ways:1) In a physical change no new substances are made; in a chemical change new substances are made.2) A physical change can be easily reversed; a chemical change cannot be easily reversed.Dissolving copper sulphate in water does not produce a new substance. The copper sulphate solution is a mixture, not a pure substance.Also, by evaporating the water you can easily get the copper sulphate back again.So, dissolving copper sulphate is a physical change.Sometimes, though, when water is added to copper sulphate, it reacts with the water to form copper sulphate pentahydrate, which is a new compound. This would be a chemical change, but actually dissolving it is indeed a physical change only.See these sites for more information:http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/ks3bitesize/science/chemistry/chem_react_2.shtmlhttp://www.chem4kids.com/files/matter_chemphys.html


What happens when a mixture of sand and copper sulphate is stirred into water?
