Copper(II) sulfate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Cu SO 4.It forms hydrates CuSO 4 ·nH 2 O, where n can range from 1 to 7. The pentahydrate (n = 5), a bright blue crystal, is the most commonly encountered hydrate of copper(II) sulfate, [10] while its anhydrous form is white. [11]
Benedict's reagent (often called Benedict's qualitative solution or Benedict's solution) is a chemical reagent and complex mixture of sodium carbonate, sodium citrate, and copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate. [1] It is often used in place of Fehling's solution to detect the presence of reducing sugars and other reducing substances. [2]
Blue vitriol – copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate. Green vitriol – a mineral; iron(II) sulfate heptahydrate. (or ferrous sulfate) Red vitriol - cobalt sulfate. [1] Sweet vitriol – diethyl ether. It could be made by mixing oil of vitriol with spirit of wine and heating it. [2] White vitriol – zinc sulfate, formed by lixiviating roasted zinc ...
Copper is a chemical element with the symbol Cu (from Latin: cuprum) and the atomic number of 29. It is easily recognisable, due to its distinct red-orange color.Copper also has a range of different organic and inorganic salts, having varying oxidation states ranging from (0,I) to (III).
Copper hydride is also produced by reductive sonication. In this process, hexaaquacopper(II) and hydrogen(•) react to produce copper hydride and oxonium according to the equation: [Cu(H 2 O) 6] 2+ + 3 H • → 1 / n (CuH) n + 2 [H 3 O] + + 4 H 2 O. Hydrogen(•) is obtained in situ from the homolytic sonication of water. Reductive sonication ...
CuSO 4 ·5H 2 O – copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate; CoCl 2 ·6H 2 O – cobalt(II) chloride hexahydrate; SnCl 2 ·2H 2 O – tin(II) (or stannous) chloride dihydrate; For many salts, the exact bonding of the water is unimportant because the water molecules are made labile upon dissolution.
Starting in the 1950s, there was increasing focus on the issue of bioavailability of trace mineral supplements which led to copper sulfate pentahydrate becoming the predominant source. Because of its high water solubility , and thus hygroscopicity , CuSO 4 leads to destructive reactions in feed mixtures.
Instead of copying all the details across, I was hoping to gradually move it over. Make Copper(II) sulfate about the anhydrous and aqeuous forms, only summarizing the hydrated forms. Make Copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate about the more systems, and behaviour of the hydrate. Plasmic Physics 00:03, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
