Question

Copper(II) sulfate is an active ingredient in tree stump remover. In order to help remove
a tree that was causing foundational damage to a school, a chemistry student soaked
the roots with copper(ll) sulfate. The removed tree was later dried and used as
firewood. Assuming the copper(II) sulfate is present in the wood, what color would be
observed in the fire?

Answer 1

Answer:

the tree red

Explanation:

Answer 2

Copper (II) substances burn to produce bluish-green flames.

Flame test for copper (II)

The copper (II) present in the wood will make the flame produce a bluish-green color.

This is because copper (II) compounds are known to produce flame colors that range from blue to bluish-green when tested in the laboratory.

This is because the electrons in the atoms of copper lose energy and drop to lower energy, releasing the lost energy as light in the process.
