Describe a safe method for making pure crystals of copper sulfate from copper carbonate and dilute sulfuric acid.

SEE EXPLANATION

Explanation:

The equation of this reaction is shown below;

CuCO3(s) + H2SO4(aq) > CuSO4(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)

Our intention is to make pure crystals of copper sulfate from copper carbonate and dilute sulfuric acid.

We have to place the dilute sulfuric acid in a beaker and then add copper carbonate using a spatula little by little until the copper carbonate is in excess or effervescence is no longer observed.

The solution is now filtered using a filter paper and funnel. This removes the excess copper carbonate.

The solution is now poured into an evaporating dish/basin and heated using a bunsen burner until crystals of copper sulfate are left behind.
