Cupric Sulfate reagent fine crystal - 125g
Cupric sulfate (copper(II) sulfate) reagent fine crystals are widely used in classrooms for chemistry experiments and demonstrations, primarily due to their distinct blue color and diverse chemical properties. Common educational uses include:
-
Chemical Reactions and Color Changes: Cupric sulfate is often used in experiments to demonstrate various chemical reactions, such as double displacement reactions and redox reactions. For example, when zinc metal is placed in a solution of cupric sulfate, a redox reaction occurs, producing copper metal and zinc sulfate.
-
Electrolysis and Electroplating: Cupric sulfate is commonly used in electrochemistry experiments to demonstrate the principles of electrolysis. Students can use it to deposit a layer of copper on a metal object, illustrating the concept of metal plating.
-
Crystallization and Hydration Studies: Cupric sulfate crystals are ideal for studying crystallization and hydration. In its hydrated form (CuSO₄•5H₂O), it is a vibrant blue, but it turns white upon heating when it loses its water molecules. This change is used to teach about the effects of hydration and dehydration on compounds.
-
Identifying Presence of Water: Cupric sulfate can also be used as a qualitative test for water. The blue hydrated form turns white when heated (as it becomes anhydrous), and when a drop of water is added to the anhydrous form, it turns blue again. This makes it an excellent tool for illustrating reversible hydration reactions.
-
Demonstrating Copper Ion Properties: The distinct blue color of cupric sulfate is due to the presence of copper(II) ions in solution. It is often used to teach students about the behavior of transition metals and their unique colors in aqueous solutions.
Cupric sulfate should be handled carefully, as it is toxic if ingested and can cause irritation to skin and eyes. Proper safety equipment, including gloves and goggles, should be used during experiments.
Your students will become junior detectives, honing their forensic skills by solving the mysteries surrounding a fictitious "crime scenario". They'll conduct a series of forensic analysis activities to determine if a crime has been committed. Each activity is centered around a particular analysis technique to include toxicology, chromatography, finger printing, document analysis and simulated blood typing.
Introduce your students to the fundamentals of chemistry. Provide your class with a basic understanding of the primary concepts of chemistry as they investigate how matter is classified, identify the various types of mixtures, and compare the properties of solutions with the properties for mixtures. They'll also learn to identify elements and compounds and study how chemical symbols, formulas and equations are used to describe chemical reactions. Grades 7-10.
Observe the effects of 3 doses of gamma irradiation on seeds and compare with control seeds. Rye grass and mung bean seeds have a short germination period, so students can see the effects within 48 hours and the experiment can be completed within 2 weeks. Kit contains enough for 30 students to work individually.
Visualize the potential contamination of groundwater. Construct mini-groundwater simulation models showing the movement of a simulated, colored pollutant. Determine under what conditions contamination occurs from a variety of sources such as spill, farms, and buried tanks and how polluted groundwater eventually reaches the drinking water supply. In the process, students learn about the water cycle, water quality, ppm and ppb pollutant contamination, porosity of soils, and other related concepts. Grades 6-10.
Introduces students to the value of food, its chemical substance and teaches the nature of food stuffs. Experiments: starch test, sugar test, lipids (fat) test, protein test, vitamin C test. Contains: iodine potassium iodide solution, biuret solution, vegetable oil, sudan IV solution. Benedicts mixture A, benedicts B, starch, glucose, absorbic acid, indophenol, protein, test tubes, droppers, instructions and background materials. Grades 5-9.
Today's emphasis on the artificial and natural ingredients of the foods that we eat has placed new emphasis on the chemical composition of that food. Examine the chemical, nature of many familiar food products. Experiments in this module: Presence of sugars, starches, fats and proteins, fruit discoloration, chemical composition of milk, presence of iodine in salt, calcium propionate in bread and the qualitative test for vitamin C and sulfur dioxide.
