Cupric sulphate exothermically dissolves in water to give the aquo complex [Cu(H2O)6]2+, which has octahedral molecular geometry and is paramagnetic. Other names for copper(II) sulfate are "blue vitriol" and "bluestone". Copper (II) sulfate, also known as cupric sulfate or copper sulphate, is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula CuSO4.5H2O.
Cupric sulphate, pentahydrate, GR - used to test blood for anemia. The blood is tested by dropping it into a solution of copper sulfate of known specific gravity – blood which contains sufficient hemoglobin sinks rapidly due to its density, whereas blood which does not sink or sinks slowly has insufficient amount of hemoglobin.
Cupric sulphate, pentahydrate Extra Pure - used to grow crystals in schools and in copper plating experiments, despite its toxicity. Cupric sulphate, pentahydrate - used to demonstrate an exothermic reaction, in which steel wool or magnesium ribbon is placed in an aqueous solution of CuSO4. Cupric sulphate, pentahydrate - used to demonstrate the principle of mineral hydration.
