Copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate decomposes before melting at 150 °C, losing two water molecules at 63 °C, followed by two more at 109 °C and the final water molecule at 200 °C.[4][5]

Dehydration proceeds by decomposition of the tetraaquacopper(2+) moiety, two opposing aqua groups are lost to give a diaquacopper(2+) moiety. The second dehydration step occurs with the final two aqua groups are lost. Complete dehydration occurs when the only unbound water molecule is lost.

At 650 °C, copper(II) sulfate decomposes into copper(II) oxide (CuO) and sulfur trioxide (SO3).

Its blue color is due to water of hydration. When heated in an open flame the crystals are dehydrated and turn grayish-white.[6]

Copper sulfate reacts with concentrated hydrochloric acid. In the reaction the blue solution of copper(II) turns green, due to the formation of tetrachlorocuprate(II):Cu2+ + 4 Cl- → CuCl42-

It also reacts with more reactive metals than copper (e.g. Mg, Fe, Zn, Al, Sn, Pb etc.):CuSO4 + Zn → ZnSO4 + CuCuSO4 + Fe → FeSO4 + CuCuSO4 + Mg → MgSO4 + CuCuSO4 + Sn → SnSO4 + Cu3 CuSO4 + 2 Al → Al2(SO4)3 + 3 Cu

The copper formed is deposited on the surface of the other metal. The reaction stops when no free surface of the metal is present anymore.

How do bacteria plants and fungi help to extract copper?

Bacteria plants extract copper by absorbing its chemical properties. The same goes along with fungi but they absorb the copper and use that as a reproduction synthetic. Bacteria plants can also repel the copper if the chemical properties to them is not suffice or sufficient. First, bacteria will explore the copper and its chemical properties and search for the right chemical composition to support the plant. Then, once the pathogen/virus finds the right chemical composition, they absorb the chemical composition in the copper and return to the plant. Finally, they repel the composition from their bodies into the plant which makes it suffice to create glucose.

What are the difference between a substance's physical properties and its chemical properties?

Chemical properties involve reacting with another substance. IE: burning of magnesium requires oxygen after which it is no longer magnesium. Physical properties do not. IE: metals are malleable, some very malleable, like copper wire can be bent with your hand. BUT it is still copper wire.
