Question:

Copper Sulphate and water?

When Copper Sulphate and water is mixed, is it a physical change or chemical and why?

Answer:

The copper sulfate, also known as blue vitriol and bluestone will dissolve in the water. If you evaporate the water, you get back the copper sulfate. It does not change into anything else (unless there is other stuff that is can react with in the water...) Thus it is a physical change, not a chemical one.
