Which colour of copper sulphate solution change when iron dipped in it?

It may seem like the iron rusts, but it doesn't. The chemical formula for copper sulfate is CuSO4, or, 1 copper atom, 1 sulfur atom, and 4 oxygen atoms to each molecule. When the iron is placed in the solution of copper sulfate, it replaces the copper in the solution, turning copper sulfate into iron sulfate (FeSO4) and pure copper collects on the iron. This can be proved by removing the copper and seeing that the iron has lost a lot of its mass, as in, it lost mass to the copper sulfate.
The iron (steel wool) takes on a pinkish color which is metallic copper deposited when the solution forms iron sulfate.

∙ 13y agoThere will be no reaction, because copper is not reactive enough to displace iron from the compound.

What is the colour of the solution if zinc is added to copper sulphate solution?
No colour
Why is colour of copper sulphate blue?
The colour of Copper sulphate is blue because Copper ions absorb light in all frequencies except blue which is reflected instead.
What would be seen coating the zinc strips in the reaction zinc and iron sulphate?
Hi there, I am not very sure what the coating is called but i think it is iron oxide. lolxx
Why does magnesium displace copper from copper sulphate?
This is a simple displacement reaction - the more reactive magnesium displaces the less reactive copper from a solution of its salt. .... magnesium + copper sulphate ---> copper + magnesium sulphate Mg + CuSO4 ----> MgSO4 + Cu the blue colour of the copper sulphate will disappear and the silver coloured magnesium will be replaced by brown-red copper metal. Hope this helps. :)
What forms a solution?
copper sulphate
What is the colour of the solution if zinc is added to copper sulphate solution?
No colour
What color is copper sulphate solution and water mixture?
Copper sulphate's colour is blue.
When an iron nail is dipped into copper sulphate solution after sometime the colour is changed into?
When a iron nail is dipped into copper sulphate solution after sometime the colour is changed into pale green.
The blue colour of the solution fades during the electrolysis of copper sulfate. Explain why.?
Why does the colour of copper sulphate solution change when an iron nail is dipped in it? When an iron nail is placed in a copper sulphate solution, iron displaces copper from copper sulphate solution forming iron sulphate, which is green in colour. Therefore, the blue colour of copper sulphate solution fades and green colour appears.
Why does the color of copper sulphate change when an iron nail dipped in it?
When an iron nail is placed in a copper sulphate solution, iron displaces copper from copper sulphate solution forming iron sulphate, which is green in colour.Therefore, the blue colour of copper sulphate solution fades and green colour appears.
What two colour changes do you get when you add copper sulphate solution to iron wool?
When you add copper sulphate solution to iron wool. The iron wool turns copper in color and the copper sulphate solution turns pale blue as the iron displaces the copper from the copper sulphate solution forming iron sulfate.
Why do you use copper sulphate?
A rather incomplete question. I could use copper sulphate for a number of reasons, for example as an electrolyte for copper plating, as a medium for growing impressive deep blue crystals, as a fungicide and so on. For fun, try dropping some iron filings into a fairly concentrated solution of copper sulphate and observe how the iron filings change to a copper colour and the solution changes to a green colour.
What happens when an iron nail is dipped in copper sulphate solution?
When an iron nail is dipped in copper sulphate solution, a displacement reaction occurs where the iron displaces copper from the copper sulphate solution. This results in the formation of copper metal on the surface of the iron nail, causing the nail to become coated with a layer of copper.
Why is there no colour change when a silver rod is put in blue copper sulphate solution?
When a silver rod is placed in a blue copper sulphate solution, there is no visible color change because silver is less reactive than copper. This means that silver does not displace copper from copper sulfate solution during the reaction, so the blue color of the copper sulfate solution remains unchanged.
When copper sulphate reacts with iron what colour does it turn?
When copper sulphate reacts with iron, the solution turns blue due to the formation of copper ions in the solution. This is because copper is displaced from the copper sulfate and iron sulfate is formed, leading to the blue color of the solution.
Why does the blue colour of copper sulphate disappear when a zinc plate is dipped into it?
The copper plates out while the zinc dissolves, leaving a transparent zinc sulphate solution.
What do copper sulphate crystals form when a hot saturated solution of copper sulphate is cooled?
Copper sulphate crystals form when a hot saturated solution of copper sulphate is cooled down. As the solution cools, the solubility of copper sulphate decreases, causing the excess copper sulphate to come out of the solution and form crystals.
