What will be the observations for the reaction: CuSO4(aq) + NaOH(aq)? Its a two mark question so two observations at least.

The chemical reaction would be:

CuSO4(aq) + NaOH(aq) = Cu(OH)2(s) + Na2SO4(aq)

One observation would be the formation of a precipitate since one of the products is not readily soluble to aqueous solution. A formation of a blue precipitate will be observed.
