chemical formula CuSO4-5H2Oor CuH10O9S. It appears as blue odorless crystals and is
moderately water and acid soluble at ambient conditions. It can be prepared by dissolution of
oxides, carbonates, or hydroxides in sulfuric acid solutions. It is also formed as a byproduct of
copper electrolysis and etching process. Lab grade chemicals possess reasonable purity but do not
comply with any official standard for quality or purity like the ACS Grade, the USP Grade, or theFCC Grade. The Lab Grade is also known as Laboratory Reagent (LR) and Chemically Pure (CP).
