    Copper sulfate and hydrochloric acid were mixed, turning the solution green due to the formation of copper chloride. Aluminum oxide and aluminum then reacted with the acid, releasing hydrogen gas. The combustion of this hydrogen excited copper electrons, causing them to emit a characteristic blue-green light.

    • Add 1 tsp of CuSo4.5H2O to 40 mL of 15% HCl Sol.


    • Solution turns green due to formation of CuCl42-.
    • Surface aluminium oxide reacts with HCl.
    • Then, Aluminium reacts with HCl and release H2
    • [2Al + 6HCl → AlCl3 + 3H2]
    • Energy from H2 combustion excites copper electrons; which emit a
    characteristic blue-green light.
