Ferrous Sulphate Green Crystal

Product Code : SCL-LC-12284

The Ferrous Sulphate Green Crystal lab chemical is an iron(II) sulfate reagent used for supervised chemistry experiments involving iron salts, sulfate ions, redox behaviour, solution preparation, and qualitative inorganic chemistry. It is suitable for schools, colleges, chemistry laboratories, science departments, institutional tenders, distributors, and educational procurement buyers.

Product Description

Ferrous Sulphate Green Crystal from Science Lab Supplies is intended for controlled educational and laboratory use where an iron(II) sulfate reagent is required. The exact hydrate form, grade, assay, pack size, physical form, batch number, shelf life, SDS, COA, and regulatory documents must be confirmed before final quotation or publication.

Ferrous sulphate green crystal is commonly supplied as ferrous sulphate heptahydrate, written as FeSO₄·7H₂O. It should be distinguished from ferric sulphate, which is an iron(III) salt. In teaching laboratories, it supports lessons on Fe²⁺ ions, sulfate salts, crystallisation, oxidation, reducing agents, and qualitative inorganic analysis where the SOP and SDS permit.

Key Features

• Iron(II) sulfate reagent: suitable for supervised chemistry teaching and approved inorganic practical work.
• Green crystal form: product name indicates green crystals; final physical form must be verified from the supplied batch.
• Formula reference: common heptahydrate form is represented as FeSO₄·7H₂O.
• Redox teaching value: supports lessons on Fe²⁺ oxidation, reducing behaviour, and iron salt chemistry.
• Distinct from ferric salts: ferrous sulphate contains iron(II), while ferric sulphate contains iron(III).
• Solution preparation use: suitable for approved reagent solutions under institutional SOP and SDS guidance.
• Documentation-led procurement: SDS, COA, assay, batch number, and shelf-life details should be verified before use.

• Supporting tender-based procurement for chemistry lab chemical inventories

How to Use the Ferrous Sulphate Green Crystal

1. Read the current SDS, product label, and institutional risk assessment before use.
2. Confirm the hydrate form before weighing, because formula weight changes by hydration state.
3. Wear suitable PPE, including lab coat, gloves, and eye protection.
4. Use only the quantity required by the approved laboratory procedure.
5. Measure the crystals with a clean, dry spatula or weighing tool.
6. Prepare solutions only in approved glassware or labelled containers.
7. Use freshly prepared solutions when Fe²⁺ stability is important, because ferrous salts can oxidise on exposure to air.
8. Dispose of residues according to institutional chemical-waste rules.

Safety note: Use Ferrous Sulphate Green Crystal only in supervised laboratory procedures. Avoid inhaling dust, ingestion, eye contact, unlabelled solutions, environmental discharge, and mixing with unknown oxidising agents without SDS review.

Care & Maintenance

• Store tightly closed in a cool, dry, ventilated chemical-storage area.
• Protect from moisture, air exposure, strong oxidizers, food items, and unlabelled containers.
• Use clean, dry tools and avoid returning unused or contaminated crystals to the original pack.
• Maintain SDS, COA, batch number, hydrate form, pack size, and shelf-life records for audit control.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Ferrous Sulphate Green Crystal used for in a laboratory?

Ferrous Sulphate Green Crystal is used as an iron(II) sulfate reagent for supervised chemistry teaching, qualitative analysis, redox demonstrations, sulfate chemistry, and solution preparation.

What is the formula of Ferrous Sulphate Green Crystal?

If supplied as the common heptahydrate, the formula is FeSO₄·7H₂O. The hydrate form must be confirmed from the final label and COA.

Is Ferrous Sulphate the same as Ferric Sulphate?

No. Ferrous sulphate contains iron(II), while ferric sulphate contains iron(III). They are different iron salts and should not be interchanged without checking the method.

Why are the crystals green?

The green crystal description is commonly associated with ferrous sulphate heptahydrate. Colour may change if the material oxidises or if the supplied hydrate form differs.

What grade is supplied?

The grade is not confirmed. Add LR, AR, ACS, analytical, technical, assay, or purity details only after verifying the product label, COA, or datasheet.

Does it include SDS or COA?

SDS and COA availability must be confirmed for the final supply. These documents should be requested before procurement, storage, classroom use, transport, or disposal planning.
