Quality reagent in durable bottle

I used this cupric sulfate solution to react with iron filings in a high school science experiment. The reaction (iron replaced copper to form ferrous sulfate and metallic copper) went perfectly. This solution has a relatively low concentration (0.1 mol), but for my application that is quite enough.

Pros
  • Durable test results
Cons
  • Newer model could have been chosen

Too weak for plating jewelry

Can't comment on chemistry use, but I bought it for plating (jewelry) and it was too weak. I added some bleach (concentrated copper sulphate) which improved the transfer of copper but gave up before I was satisfied. I wouldn't advise buying this if you're using it for electroplating with a rectifier.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging

Works Well: Lab Chemicals

As a STEM lab teacher, it's important to introduce hands-on science to my students, but I don't have a lot of lab equipment. This already mixed solution was perfect for my 5th graders to watch a chemistry experiment. We added the iron to the solution and the students should have seen bubbles and a single displacement reaction that left the iron plated with copper. It was perfect.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No Instructions
