The metal is Copper. The salt is CuSO4. It formed whenCopper reacts with concentrated Sulfuric acid, according to the following equation:
Cu + 2H2SO4 = CuSO4 + SO2 + 2H2O
The solution of copper sulfate in water is clean and has blue color. When we add NaOH solution to CuSO4 solution, the blue precipitate forms, according to the following reaction:
CuSO4 + 2NaOH = Cu(OH)2 + Na2SO4
A Copper is used to make electric wire and brass. Hence, x is Copper (Cu) y is Cu(OH)2
Numbers and figures are an essential part of our world, necessary for almost everything we do every day. As important…
