3rd‚ 2009 Lab Report #3: Copper Cycle Abstract: The purpose of the experiment is to cycle solid copper through a series of five reactions. At different stages of the cycle‚ copper was present in different forms. First reaction involves reaction between the copper and nitric acid‚ and copper changed from elemental state to an aqueous. The second reaction converted the aqueous Cu2+ into the solid copper (2) hydroxide. In the third reaction Cu(OH)2 decomposed into copper 2 oxide and water when heated

Unsaturated organic compounds : Organic compounds in which a double or a triple bond exists between two carbon atoms in a carbon chain‚ are called unsaturated organic compounds. 10. Hydrocarbons : Organic compounds which contain only carbon and hydrogen atoms are called hydrocarbons. 11. Straight chain hydrocarbons : Hydrocarbons‚ in which all the carbon atoms are linked to one another in a straight chain

Mining Assignment #4 By Siyuan Wei‚ Yifei Pei‚ Amrita Sur and Clinton Huynh Mineral: Copper Dip: 60 Depth: 650m Location/Terrain: Under River Chosen Mining Method: Sublevel Stoping - Sublevel Stoping is designed for mineral deposits which consists of fairly stable rocks and have a steep dip. - This method is quite commonly used to mine copper at varies sites around Australia. For example‚ Mount Isa‚ Olympic Dam etc… Mining Process - Sublevels are created within the solid

I. INTRODUCTION Synthesis Acetylsalicylic acid is an acetyl derivative of salicylic acid which appears as a white and crystalline and a weakly acidic substance with a melting point of 135°C and is also known to be aspirin. It is one of the most widely used drugs that can lower fever and is used as a painkiller. According to (Escobel‚ 2011)‚ Aspirin is synthesized through the reaction of salicylic acid with acetyl anhydride that causes a chemical reaction that turns salicylic acid’s hydroxyl group

The Effect of pH Level of a Liquid on the Rate of Corrosion of Copper wire In this experiment‚ I will be testing the corrosion rate of copper wire after leaving them in different liquids with different pH levels. By doing so I will be able to determine which pH level corrodes copper the fastest. I will conduct this experiment by pouring 250mL of different liquids with different pH levels in cups‚ followed by an iron strip placed into the cup. A stopwatch will be timing how long it takes the iron

A Sequence of Chemical Reactions: Transforming Copper Briefly describe. a) Why must you carry out the oxidation of Cu with HNO3 in a fume hood? Concentrated nitric acid is a toxic oxidant. Avoiding skin contact or inhalation is highly important. The reaction between Cu and HNO3 produces NO2‚ a toxic brown gas; therefore working under the fume is necessary in order to prevent inhaling the toxic gas. b) Why you should be particularly careful when you work with 3 M H2SO4 solution?

Coursework 4 Copper Name of student: Alfiya Ospanova Tutorial group: G Copper is one of the earliest elements explored by humanity. Due to the special red shade it was easy to find in ancient times. The metal was named according to place where it was found‚ the Cyprus islands. Copper produced in massive stars and spread in the world as minerals like chalcocite and chalcopyrite (sulfide of copper)‚ azurite and malachite (carbonate of copper)‚ cuprite (oxide of copper). The atomic

Research question/Aim Extract copper from copper oxide by reduction using butane gas Hypothesis The butane gas will reduce the copper oxide and leave behind pure copper. This will allow us to find the empirical formula of the copper oxide as well as the masses of oxygen and copper Variables Dependant variable The dependant variable will be the reduction of the copper oxide which will be calculated at different temperatures. Independent variable The independent variable here

sulphides in contact with air and water produces sulphuric acid which reduces the pH of water. The result of these reactions is increase in the solubility of heavy metals and consequently pollution of water resources. The Sarcheshmeh copper mine is one of the largest porphyry copper mines in the world which is located in south-eastern Iran. Chemical analysis of over than 600 water samples taken from streams and springs in the mining region and surrounding area of pit showed extensive changes in water quality
