Water vapors and sulfur dioxide are released.
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.
Copper sulfate is formed.
Yes, a reaction will occur when copper is heated with iron oxide. The iron in iron oxide will react with the copper to form copper oxide and iron.
Copper Carbonate when heated decomposes to give copper oxide and carbon dioxide.
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.
When hydrated copper sulfate is heated, it loses water molecules and forms anhydrous copper sulfate, which has a lower mass due to the removal of water. So, the mass would decrease upon heating hydrated copper sulfate.
You would get water in the gas phase (steam). The word "hydrated" means that there are water molecules mixed in with the copper sulphate, and so when you heat it, you will turn that water into steam, freeing it. Because of the high melting point of ionic compounds like copper sulphate, it will not be affected by heating unless you go to extemely high temperatures.
Hydrated copper sulphate (CuSO4.5H2O) is BLUE Anhydrous copper sulphate (CuSO4) is white at any temperature.
On heating hydrated Copper Sulphate (CuSO4 . 5 H2O), the result is the removal of water molecules of crystallization, which for this very compound is 5 molecules per molecule of copper sulphate. The process cited above is termed as dehydration.
copper sulphate and hydrogen is released.
Anhydrous copper sulfate (CuSO4) is reversible in the sense that it can absorb water molecules from the environment to form hydrated copper sulfate. Conversely, hydrated copper sulfate can be heated to drive off the water molecules, regenerating anhydrous copper sulfate. This process is reversible as it involves only physical changes and not chemical reactions.
Pouring water on it because when it is heated it turns to an endothermic reaction and the hydrated part is boiled put of the compound it is then Anhydrous copper sulphate. When you add water it is hydrated again and this is an exothermic reaction. Which can get extremely hot so don't pour it on your hand and then hydrate it.
Hydrous copper sulphate, when heated, turns into anhydrous copper sulphate and changes its color from blue to white. The blue color comes from the water molecules bound to the copper sulphate crystals, and when heated, these water molecules are removed, resulting in a color change.
Copper Sulphate usually is found in a hydrated form (i.e., water molecules are incorporated into the crystals.) Pure copper sulphate is a pale, greenish gray color. The familiar blue color only occurs in hydrates of copper sulphate (i.e., in crystals that incorporate H20 molecules). Heating the blue crystals can drive off the water. It's still called copper sulphate after you do that. For substances like copper sulphate that naturally attract water, the adjective, anhydrous often is used to describe the pure (water free) state. If you heat copper sulphate to a temperature of 650C, it will decompose into something else. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_sulphate
With sufficient heating, the blue colored hydrated copper sulfate crystals common at standard temperature and pressure will lose their water of hydration and lose their blue color. With further heating, the anhydrous crystals will melt.
they dissolve or dilute
When copper sulfate pentahydrate is heated, it undergoes a dehydration reaction where the water molecules are released, leaving behind anhydrous copper sulfate. This process is reversible, and when anhydrous copper sulfate is exposed to moisture, it will reabsorb water and form copper sulfate pentahydrate again.
