Cupric Chloride Lab

Product Code : SCL-LC-12187

Cupric Chloride Lab (SKU SCL-LC-12187) is copper(II) chloride, CuCl2, also called copper dichloride, offered as a laboratory reagent for copper-salt chemistry, qualitative analysis and solution preparation. It suits Cu2+ tests in supervised school labs and methods that specify it in college, university and analytical laboratories. Each quotation for it is issued by Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India, whether the buyer is a school, college, stockroom, tender contractor or distributor.

Specifications

Both forms of copper(II) chloride are covered in the table, one fact per row. In short, the salt exists as anhydrous CuCl2 (CAS 7447-39-4) and as hydrates such as CuCl2·2H2O; depending on form it looks brown, yellow-brown or green-blue, some forms take up moisture, and the batch label names the form, grade and pack size.

Applications and Experiments for Cupric Chloride

As a soluble copper(II) salt, cupric chloride lets students study the reactions and colours of copper ions and of chloride in one compound. College and analytical labs can prepare copper(II) chloride solutions from it whenever an approved method calls for this particular salt.

• CBSE Class 12 salt analysis: identifying Cu2+ among the group II cations, then cleaning the tubes with a nylon-bristle Test Tube Brush lab.
• B.Sc. inorganic practicals on copper(II) salts and their colour changes in solution, kept in a 60 ml amber Glass Bottle, for Liquid Reagents (Amber).
• Qualitative analysis of chloride salts and training in careful weighing and dissolution, wearing single-use Gloves Protective.

Standard Scope of Supply

Supply is one closed container of cupric chloride per unit, labelled with batch, grade and hydrate-form details and accompanied by the current Safety Data Sheet. Outer packaging is tamper-sealed and carries the export documents; glassware and other reagents can join the same quotation.

Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted.

Packing, MOQ and Lead Time

Request a price for a single container or for a multi-school order; the quotation gives packing, delivery time and price for exactly that quantity. Other copper salts and laboratory chemicals can be added, and you are welcome to ask for the cupric chloride price in India alongside the rest of the list.

Because it holds an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Iraq, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia and Tanzania. Copper-salt orders can be raised on the contact page or assembled in the enquiry cart, and tender-bound purchases are explained on the lab tender page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is cupric chloride hazardous?
Yes. It can irritate or damage the eyes, skin and mucous membranes and may be harmful if inhaled or swallowed. Use gloves, goggles, ventilation and trained supervision.

How should copper chloride residues be disposed of?
Collect residues and spent solutions as copper-containing laboratory waste in a labelled container and dispose of them under local rules. Do not pour solutions down the sink.

Who supplies the Cupric Chloride Lab?
Buyers deal directly with Science Lab Supplies, which quotes the salt from Ambala, India and sends the Safety Data Sheet and a hydrate-form label with every batch.

Which hydrate form will arrive?
The form printed on the batch label: anhydrous CuCl2 (CAS 7447-39-4) or a hydrate such as the dihydrate. Mention your method's requirement when enquiring so the quotation matches it.
