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

EXTRACTION OF COPPER FROM OXIDISED COPPER ORE Aim: To analyse how copper is obtained from oxidised copper ore using the processes of leaching‚ solid-liquid separation‚ displacing and electrowinning. Method: Refer to ‘Extraction of Copper from oxidised Copper Ore’ document pages 1-2 Results: Leaching: The blue particles in the copper ore which is copper was dissolved in the sulphuric acid and the solution turned into a blue colour. There was also sediment that was floating around

The Copper A. In the text “the Copper” Glenn Gavin tells about his experience and viewpoints 20 months after he joined the Metropolitan Police. In the text are different subjects discussed. Glenn Gavin talks about his upraise inside the family and at school‚ the role of rules‚ his choice of carrier‚ and attitude toward politics. When Gavin was a kid his parents gave him a “guiding kick up the backside every now and then” (p. 1 l. 2). For example when he “came in late” (p. 1 l.3) or if he “was

Snellville is one of the most competitive counties of nail salons businesses which provide many differences of nail types and designs. Unfortunately‚ people tend to focus on the beauty of their nails more than any other aspect. Although customers in Snellville enjoy getting their nails done‚ they should reconsider visiting a nail salon because the chemicals

Affecting the Rate of a Chemical Reaction Title of your investigation An investigation into the factors affecting the rate of a chemical reaction 1. Aim of investigation To investigate the major factors that affect the rate of corrosion. 2. Motivation (explain why you have chosen to investigate this particular topic) I have chosen to examine this experiment as it applies to our daily lives. Rusting of metal occurs every day whether it’s the nails on our deck or that rusting bicycle

It had a shiny/metallic and opaque look‚ with an orange colour. HNO3 description: The nitric acid solution was a transparent‚ colourless‚ homogenous liquid. Notes and observations on the reaction: Final: Blue solution- homogenous

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? Sulfuric acid solution is a toxic

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 strip to fully corrode. The cups
