Question

Why blue colour salt of copper sulphate brcomes white on heating?

Answer 1

Hello

Your answer :

Hydrated Copper Sulphate crystals [CuSO4.5H2O] are blue in colour. When copper sulphate crystals are heated strongly, they loose all the water of crystallization and form anhydrous copper sulphate [which is white in colour]. The water of crystallisation gives the crystals of their salts their shape and colour.

Thanks :)
