Abstract: All the materials were measured and weighed. It was found in the experiment that the yield of copper hydroxide in 40%. Introduction: The copper (II) sulphate is then placed in 100 mL of distilled water. Then 20 mL of CuSO4 is measured and placed 100 mL of distilled water. This can later be weighed to determine the mol of CuSO4 and the mol/L concentration. Then this was used to find out how many mL of 0.5 NaOH solution is needed to react completely with all the copper (II)

transmission. Direct transmission occurs when there is physical contact between an infected person and a susceptible person. Indirect contact transmission occurs when there is no direct human-to-human contact. Contact occurs from a reservoir to contaminated surfaces or objects‚ or to vectors such as insects or animals. Direct contact infections spread when microorganisms pass from the infected person to the healthy person via direct physical contact with blood or body fluids. Examples of direct contact are touching

extrusion and rolling. The important assumptions are : 1. The direction of the applied load and planes perpendicular to this direction define principal directions‚ and the principal stresses do not vary on these planes. 2. Although effects of surface friction are included in the force balance‚ these do not influence the internal distortion of the metal or the orientation of principal directions. 3. Plane sections remain plane; thus the deformation is homogeneous in regard to the determination
