Probably a very dilute solution of copper sulphate act as a desinfecting agent; but the copper sulphate is toxic. It is more sure to avoid this experiment.

What would happen if you put calcium wity copper sulphate?

Calcium + Copper sulfate ----> Calcium sulfate + Copper It is a single displacement reactions. The products are Calcium Sulfate (white, insoluble) and fillings of copper(reddish-brown).


What will happen if you put an iron nail in a copper sulfate solution?

When an iron nail is placed in a copper sulfate solution, a single displacement reaction occurs. The iron will displace the copper in the solution, forming iron sulfate and depositing copper on the nail, causing it to turn a brownish color due to the presence of copper.


What happens when gold is put in copper sulfate?

Any reaction occur when gold is put in copper sulfate.


What happens when nickel is put in a copper (II) sulfate solution?

When nickel is put in a copper (II) sulfate solution, a displacement reaction occurs where the nickel replaces the copper in the solution. This results in the formation of nickel sulfate and copper metal deposits on the surface of the nickel.


What happens when you put copper sulphate in water?

When you put copper sulfate in water, it will dissolve and dissociate into copper ions (Cu2+) and sulfate ions (SO4 2-). This process creates a blue-colored solution due to the presence of copper ions in the water.


What happens if you put copper metal into a solution of aluminum sulfate?

Nothing will happen. Displacement reaction only happens when the element is more reactive than the salt solution. An example will be the otherwise. If you put aluminum metal into a solution of Copper (II) Sulfate. The aluminum metal will displace copper metal and you will have a solution of Aluminum Sulfate and copper metal. As long the element you put into the salt solution is more reactive than the cation of the solution, it will displace the metal.


Why when you heat up copper sulphate does it turn blue?

You have this backwards. Copper sulfate, CuSO4.5H2O is blue. When it is gently heated, it loses water and turns white.CuSO4.5H2O --> CuSO4 + 5 H2O.The white substance is anhydrous copper sulfate. If you put water on it it turns blue again.


How do you separate copper sulfate and sulfur?

You can separate copper sulfate and sulfur by heating the mixture. Sulfur has a lower melting point than copper sulfate, so it will melt and can be separated by filtering while copper sulfate remains solid.

To separate a mixtuer of copper sulfate and sand?

Get a funnel and a beaker and something to hold the funnel over the beaker. Put a paper which is fitted to the funnel so the sand cant get through, you pour the mixture of sand and copper sulfate into the funnel. So the sand stays on top of the paper and the liquids travel through the paper into the beaker.


What happens when copper sulfate and magnesium react?

When copper sulfate and magnesium react, a displacement reaction occurs where the magnesium displaces the copper in the solution to form magnesium sulfate and copper. The magnesium will appear to dissolve and bubbles of hydrogen gas will be released during the reaction.
