Copper Sulphate Blue Crystal

Product Code : SCL-LC-12295

The Copper Sulphate Blue Crystal lab chemical is a copper(II) sulfate reagent used for supervised chemistry experiments involving copper salts, crystallisation, hydration, qualitative analysis, electrochemistry, and solution preparation. It is suitable for schools, colleges, chemistry laboratories, science departments, institutional tenders, distributors, and educational procurement buyers.

Product Description

Copper Sulphate Blue Crystal from Science Lab Supplies is intended for controlled educational and laboratory use where a copper sulfate reagent is required. The exact hydrate form, grade, assay, pack size, crystal size, batch number, shelf life, SDS, COA, and regulatory documents must be confirmed before quotation or publication.

Copper sulphate blue crystal is commonly associated with copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate, written as CuSO₄·5H₂O. The anhydrous form is CuSO₄ and differs in appearance, molecular weight, and handling. This listing is for laboratory-use copper sulphate only, not agricultural, pesticide, aquaculture, household, decorative crystal-growing, or consumer use.

Key Features

• Copper(II) sulfate reagent: suitable for supervised inorganic chemistry teaching and approved laboratory procedures.
• Blue crystal form: product name indicates blue crystals; final hydrate form and appearance must be verified from the supplied batch.
• Formula reference: common blue pentahydrate form is represented as CuSO₄·5H₂O.
• Crystallisation teaching value: supports approved demonstrations on hydration, water of crystallisation, and crystal observation.
• Copper ion chemistry support: useful for approved copper salt, displacement, electrochemistry, and qualitative analysis lessons.
• Environmental care: copper-containing residues should be collected as laboratory chemical waste, not discharged casually.
• Documentation-led procurement: SDS, COA, assay, batch number, grade, and shelf-life details should be verified before use.

How to Use the Copper Sulphate Blue Crystal

1. Read the current SDS, product label, and institutional risk assessment before use.
2. Confirm the hydrate form before weighing, because pentahydrate and anhydrous forms have different formula weights.
3. Wear suitable PPE, including lab coat, gloves, and eye protection.
4. Use only the quantity required by the approved laboratory procedure.
5. Measure the crystals with a clean, dry spatula or compatible weighing tool.
6. Prepare solutions only in labelled glassware or approved containers.
7. Label prepared solutions with chemical name, concentration, hydrate form, date, and safety notes.
8. Collect residues and used solutions according to copper-containing chemical-waste rules.

Safety note: Use Copper Sulphate Blue Crystal only in supervised laboratory procedures. Do not ingest, inhale dust, discharge to drains, heat uncontrolled quantities, mix with unknown chemicals, or issue for unsupervised student handling.

Care & Maintenance

• Store tightly closed in a cool, dry, ventilated chemical-storage area.
• Protect from contamination, unnecessary moisture variation, food items, incompatible chemicals, and unlabelled containers.
• Use clean, dry tools and avoid returning unused or contaminated crystals to the original pack.
• Maintain SDS, COA, batch number, hydrate form, grade, pack size, and shelf-life records for audit control.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Copper Sulphate Blue Crystal used for in a laboratory?

Copper Sulphate Blue Crystal is used as a copper(II) sulfate reagent for supervised crystallisation, hydration, copper ion chemistry, qualitative analysis, solution preparation, and electrochemistry demonstrations.

What is the formula of Copper Sulphate Blue Crystal?

If supplied as the common blue pentahydrate, the formula is CuSO₄·5H₂O. The hydrate form must be confirmed from the final label and COA.

Is Copper Sulphate Blue Crystal the same as anhydrous copper sulphate?

No. Blue copper sulphate is commonly the pentahydrate form, while anhydrous copper sulphate is a different hydrate state with the formula CuSO₄. They should not be interchanged without checking the method.

Is Copper Sulphate Blue Crystal hazardous?

It requires SDS-based handling. Avoid ingestion, inhaling dust, eye contact, skin contact, uncontrolled heating, and environmental release.

Is it suitable for school chemistry labs?

Yes. It is suitable for supervised school and college chemistry laboratories when trained staff control dispensing, solution preparation, storage, and disposal.

What grade is supplied?

The grade is not confirmed. Add LR, AR, ACS, analytical, technical, assay, or purity details only after verifying the product label, COA, or datasheet.
