One of the compounds left a white solid in the filter paper. What is the name of this compound? What is the colour of the filtrate from this beaker? Describe how you could obtain pure crystals of iron sulfate from a mixture of copper carbonate and iron sulfate.

The white solid left in the filter paper is likely iron sulfate (FeSO4). Iron sulfate is a white crystalline solid that is soluble in water.<br /><br />The color of the filtrate from this beaker would depend on the concentration of iron sulfate in the solution. If the filtrate is clear, it would likely be colorless or very pale yellow. If the filtrate is cloudy or has a high concentration of iron sulfate, it may appear yellow or orange.<br /><br />To obtain pure crystals of iron sulfate from a mixture of copper carbonate and iron sulfate, you could follow these steps:<br /><br />1. Dissolve the mixture in water to form a solution. The copper carbonate will not dissolve and will remain as a solid.<br />2. Filter the solution to separate the solid copper carbonate from the iron sulfate solution.<br />3. Evaporate the water from the iron sulfate solution to form a saturated solution of iron sulfate.<br />4. Slowly cool the saturated solution of iron sulfate, allowing it to crystallize. You can do this by placing the solution in an ice bath or letting it sit at room temperature.<br />5. Once crystals have formed, filter them out of the solution using a fine mesh filter or a piece of filter paper.<br />6. Wash the crystals with cold water to remove any impurities.<br />7. Allow the crystals to dry and then weigh them to determine their purity.<br /><br />By following these steps, you should be able to obtain pure crystals of iron sulfate from the mixture of copper carbonate and iron sulfate.
