8TH Online Preparing Common Salts

(1) Kerry made copper sulphate crystals by heating dilute sulfuric acid and adding copper oxide, which reacted to form a blue solution. She filtered out the unreacted copper oxide and leftover crystals formed after evaporation. (2) The passage asks questions about the colors of copper sulphate solution and copper oxide, and asks for the word equation for the reaction that occurred. It also asks why Kerry filtered the mixture. (3) Additional questions ask about uses of calcium sulfate and ammonium chloride, and ask the student to write equations for reactions involving calcium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, and other chemical species.

Name: _________ Maximum Marks: 30 Marks Obtained: ___

I. Kerry made some copper sulphate crystals. She wrote a description of what
she did.
I heated some dilute sulphuric acid in a beaker and added some
Copper oxide to it. I stirred the mixture until it became a clear blue
colour. I added more copper oxide until no more would react and then
filtered the mixture into a dish. A black solid was left on the filter paper.
I left the solution in the dish for a week and saw that the liquid had gone
and blue crystals were left.

Use the information in Kerry's description to answer the questions below:


(a) What colour is:

(i) Copper sulphate solution?


.................................................................................................................... [1]

(ii) Copper oxide?


.................................................................................................................... [1]

(b) Write down a word equation for the reaction which took place in the beaker.
