The blue color is due to the formation of coordinate covalent bonds between water molecules and the copper cations in solution to form a complex cation that absorbs yellow light and therefore looks blue in transmitted light.
The colour of Copper sulphate is blue because Copper ions absorb light in all frequencies except blue which is reflected instead.
copper sulphate gets hydrated in water and thus is diffusible.
formula : cuso4 chemical name: copper sulphate
This is a simple displacement reaction - the more reactive magnesium displaces the less reactive copper from a solution of its salt. .... magnesium + copper sulphate ---> copper + magnesium sulphate Mg + CuSO4 ----> MgSO4 + Cu the blue colour of the copper sulphate will disappear and the silver coloured magnesium will be replaced by brown-red copper metal. Hope this helps. :)
Copper sulfate itself is white/colorless when anhydrous. However, it's hygroscopic and the pentahydrate (the usual form) is blue... in fact, it's just about the same color as the sidebar over to the left there.
Copper sulphate's colour is blue.
Yes, copper sulphate can dissolve in water. When added to water, copper sulphate dissociates into copper ions (Cu2+) and sulphate ions (SO4 2-), forming a blue-colored solution.
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.
Water changes blue anhydrous copper sulphate crystals to white by creating hydrated copper sulphate, which is white in color.
When copper sulfate is dissolved in water, it dissociates into copper ions (Cu2+) and sulfate ions (SO4 2-). This forms a blue-colored solution due to the presence of copper ions in the water. The solution can conduct electricity due to the presence of free ions.
Yes, Copper Sulphate crystals can dissolve in water to form a blue solution.
When copper sulphate is added to water, it dissociates into copper ions (Cu2+) and sulphate ions (SO4 2-). This forms a blue-colored solution due to the presence of copper ions in the water.
When blue copper sulphate is heated, it loses water molecules and converts to anhydrous copper sulfate, which is white in color. The blue color of copper sulfate is due to the presence of water molecules in its crystal structure.
anhydrous copper sulphate is white. when water is added it turns blue, in essence it can be used to detect the presence of water. hope this helps!!!!!!!!!!!
Let the fourmula for the hydrous copper sulphate be CuSO4XH20 where X represents the number of water molecules write a balanced equation for the heating of the blue copper sulphate crystals?
The white copper sulphate will become blue. This is because copper sulphate usually has 5 moles of H2O, but it has reached a temperature where all five moles will have detached themselves from the copper sulphate, so it will become anhydrous (without water) and white. Then, when water is added back to it, it returns to its original blue state.
Copper sulfate solution is clear and blue Water is clear and colorless
