Copper sulfate reacts with sodium carbonate to produce sodium sulfate and copper carbonate. (CuSO4 + Na2CO3 --> Na2SO4 + CuCO3)

When copper sulfate (blue) and sodium carbonate (colorless) are mixed, a chemical reaction occurs that forms copper carbonate as a product, which is green in color. The green color comes from the copper carbonate that is insoluble in water and precipitates out when the two solutions are mixed.
