Copper is one of the few metals that have been mined for more than 100 decades globally. According to M.G.C Wilson (1989) copper has been mined since the early 3000 BC in Cyprus. In the ancient times copper was used for making tools‚ weapons‚ ornaments and many household utensils. Copper is the third most widely used metal after aluminium (Al) and iron (Fe) because of its high durability (Doebrich et.al‚2009). In the Southern African region copper has been extracted by the early inhabitants long

6: The Copper Cycle CHEM 101 Lab-M/630 As an investigation of the copper cycle lab group 6 conducted an experiment on 6 October 2014 at Arizona State University laboratory that would demonstrate the cycle of reactions that copper (Cu) can produce when introduced to with other substances/reactant. The purpose of the investigation was to notice the transformation of a specific quantity of copper wire (g) as it undergoes its coordination reactions until a reduction method would yield copper (Cu) again

In this lab‚ we changed copper into various forms using different chemicals and chemical reactions. The purpose of this lab is to demonstrate that the product of a chemical reaction depends on what is present at the time of that reaction. This lab also displays how matter cannot be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. In a lab‚ you must always make safety a priority in case of an emergency. In our lab‚ we made sure to wear closed-toed shoes as well as goggles at all times. We also performed
