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

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.
The precipitate formed when copper sulfate and sodium carbonate are mixed is copper carbonate. This reaction occurs because copper carbonate is insoluble in water and therefore forms a solid precipitate.
Copper(II) carbonate is insoluble in water and doesn't react with sodium sulfate. A green product, visible on ald objects made from copper or copper alloys, is a mixture of copper carbonate and copper hydroxide.
When copper chloride and sodium carbonate are mixed, a green precipitate of copper carbonate forms. Copper carbonate is insoluble in water, causing it to settle out of the solution as a solid.
When magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) reacts with sodium carbonate (Na2CO3), it forms magnesium carbonate (MgCO3) and sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) as products. This reaction is represented by the chemical equation: MgSO4 + Na2CO3 → MgCO3 + Na2SO4.
When copper sulfate is added to sodium hydroxide, a blue precipitate of copper hydroxide is formed. The color change observed is from the initial blue color of copper sulfate to the blue precipitate of copper hydroxide.
