Detailed Solution

Cu2+ is first converted to Cu+ and then precipitated as a result of adding KCN to a solution of CuSO4.
This interacts with extra KCN to create a soluble K3Cu(CN)4 complex.

The following reaction takes place when calcium sulphate solution reacts with excess KCN 

CuSO4+2KCNCu(CN)2+K2SO42Cu(CN)22CuCN+(CN)2CuCN+3KCNK3Cu(CN)4
