Answer 2

Blue Vitriol:

• Chemical formula of blue vitriol is CuSO4.
• IUPAC name of blue vitriol is Copper(II)sulfate.
• It is the inorganic compounds with the chemical formula CuSO4 (H2O)x, where x can range from 0 to 5. The pentahydrate(x=5) is the most common form.
• Older names for these compounds includes bluestone, the vitriol of copper, and Roman vitriol.
• It exothermically dissolves in water to give the aquo complex [Cu(H2O)6]2+, which has octahedral molecular geometry. The structure of the solid pentahydrate reveals a polymeric structure wherein copper is again octahedral.
• Copper sulfate is produced industrially by treating copper metal with hot concentrated sulfuric acid or copper oxides with dilute sulfuric acid.
• Commercial copper sulfate is usually about 98% pure copper sulfate and may contain traces of water.
• Copper(II)sulfate pentahydrate decompose before melting. It loses two water molecules upon heating at 63°c, followed by two more at 109°c and final water molecules at 200°c.
• It is chiefly as a mordant, insecticide, fungicide, and engraving.
