The $cupric ion$ $"cupric ion"$ has a truly beautiful blue colour in aqueous solution.....

Explanation:

${[C u {(O H_{2})}_{6}]}_{6}^{2 +}$ $[Cu(OH_2)_6]^(2+)$ gives a blue coloured solution in water:

Very large, macroscopic cyrstals of $[C u {(O H_{2})}_{6}] S O_{4}$ $[Cu(OH_2)_6]SO_4$ can be grown from these solutions:

And when glucose is dissolved in water, a colourless solution results. On the other hand, $cuprous oxide$ $"cuprous oxide"$ , i.e. $C u_{2} O$ $Cu_2O$ , is a brick-red powder, that is insoluble in water.
