Question

Write the ions present in the solution of cuso4. express your answers as chemical formulas separated by a comma. identify all of the phases in your answers.

Answer 1

Copper Sulfate (CuSO4) compound is basically comprised of Copper (II) ion and Sulfate ion. Ions are Cu2+ and SO4 2−.

ANSWER:Cu 2+ and SO4 2-

Answer 2

Answer: The ions which are present in the solution of $CuSO_4$ are $Cu^{2+}\text{ and }SO_4^{2-}$, both in aqueous state.

Explanation: When $CuSO_4$ is dissolved in water, it forms an aqueous solution. The solution contains two ions, both in aqueous states.

Equation follows:

$CuSO_4(aq.)\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq.)+SO_4^{2-}(aq.)$

Ions that are present in the solution of $CuSO_4$ are $Cu^{2+}\text{ and }SO_4^{2-}$
