46
Q

what colour are copper salts usually in solution

A

47
Q

how to make copper sulfate crystals

A
  1. warm 30cm3 of sulfuric acid gently
  2. add small quantities of cupper(II) oxide and stir after each addition until no more reacts
  3. filter to remove unreacted copper(II) oxide
  4. evaporate half of the liquid
  5. leave to cool and crystallise slowly. dry between 2 pieces of filter paper
48
Q

making sodium chloride crystals

A
  1. measure out 25.0cm3 of hydrochloric acid into a conical flask
  2. add 5 drops of phenolphthalein indicator
  3. add sodium hydroxide from a burette until the colour changes from colourless to pink
  4. the solution is now neutral but the indicator must be removed. add a large spatula of charcoal
  5. heat the flask gently and swirl it for 5 minutes
  6. filter the solution into an evaporating basin
  7. evaporate half of the filtrate and allow to cool and crystallise slowly
  8. filter the crystals and dry between two pieces of filter paper
49
Q

making copper sulfate crystals

A
  1. measure out 25 cm3 of sulfuric acid into a small beaker
  2. add the carbonate to the acid slowly and in small portions. when there is no more fizzing the acid has been neutralised
  3. filter the liquid
  4. evaporate half of the liquid and allow to cool and crystallise slowly
  5. filter the crystals and dry between 2 pieces of filter paper
