Question
A student wanted to prepare copper(II) sulfate crystals by reacting solid copper(II) oxide to a solution of hot sulfuric acid.

Solution
The correct answer is B.
- in excess - Copper(II) oxide should be added in excess to ensure that all the sulfuric acid reacts.
- dissolve - When the reaction has gone to completion, the copper(II) oxide will no longer dissolve in the solution. This is because all the sulfuric acid, which reacts with the copper(II) oxide, has been used up.
- filter - The mixture is then filtered to remove the excess unreacted copper(II) oxide.
- cool - The filtrate, which is a solution of copper(II) sulfate in water, is then allowed to cool. As it cools, copper(II) sulfate crystals will form.

full reaction of copper sulphate salt by reacting copper oxide with sulphuric acid
When solid copper sulphate is mixed to form a hot saturated solution with water and a small amount of acid, it leads to the formation of crystals of the same compound (copper sulphate). Chemically, what is the purpose of this procedure? 1 pointa. To obtain a non-powdered form of the compoundb. To observe both, solid and liquid forms of the compoundc. Crystal form is easier to store and use than powdered copper sulphated. To get rid of impurities in the copper sulphate and obtain pure compound
