Preparing Copper Sulfate Crystals: A Step-by-Step Guide

The video tutorial demonstrates the process of producing dry and pure copper sulfate crystals. It covers the reaction between copper oxide and sulfuric acid, the equipment used, and the step-by-step procedure. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of using excess copper oxide to ensure all acid is used up, filtering out excess copper oxide, and evaporating the solution to form crystals. Safety precautions, such as wearing safety spectacles and handling chemicals carefully, are also highlighted.
