Why is Copper Tetraamine Complex a square plane? Shouldn't it be tetrahedral since there is only four bond pairs?

Hi all, I know in copper mining industries copper which is at 99% pure ( Blister copper ) which is electropurified to 99.99% by simple electrochemical cell consist of copper sulfate as electrolyte bath along some sulfuric acid in it. My question is it possible to do this same process say...

Why does copper conduct heat better than aluminium and iron? Could anyone help me answering the question? Thanks.

For the past few weeks i have been trying to make copper chloride. I was successful in making it two different ways, but it turns out that the copper chloride that i get is in its 2nd oxidation state. And I am wondering if it was in it's first oxidation state would it not be so hydroscopic...

1.Why is a copper wire was used in a solenoid rather than a iron wire ?

Hello guys. I gave this one the good ol effort and seem to have gotten stuck. Can anyone help? ----------- A copper wire with a circular cross-section area of 1.5 mm2 carries a current of 11 A. The resistivity of the material is 2.1 × 10-8 ·m. a) What is the uniform electric field in the...

calculate the precent by mass of water in a sample of hydrated copper (II) sulfate. mass of beaker-165.3g mass of beaker with bluestone-173.9g mass of dehydrated bluestone-170.7g Would this be a ballanced equation for this reaction? CuSO4•5H2O+ heat= CuSO4+5H2O so would you do this...

We have a question that asks us what thickness of copper is necessary to achieve optical reflectivity. I know that the answer is just basically several times the skin depth (says 10 times). the only problem is that this contradicts a previous result that I've seen. We can prove that when a wave...

It asks to find the vertical force needed to pull the ball in an unknown fluid at a constant velocity. What formulas do I combine and use to find this? They give you the proportionality constant (0.95 kg/s), the constant speed (6cm/s), and the radius of the ball(1.5cm). I already have: F (y...

If I move a strip of copper mechanically with my hand through a uniform magnetic field will their be a drift velocity? And if so will the drift velocity be in the same direction as the moving copper strip? What would the magnitude of the drift velocity be if this happens? Can you have a drift...

A copper ball with a radius of 1.4cm is heated until its diameter has increased by 0.22mm. Assuming a room temperature of 22*C, find the final temperature of the ball. well what i did was i used linear expansion for this and i didnt get it right. i used (delta)L=(alpha)initial...

The question basically states write a brief overview of the correlation between the properties and uses for copper, iron, aluminium and zinc. Now I know this sounds like a simple research task, it's supposed to relate to periodic trends and their placing on the table. It's in this area that...

I am already known around here for my Iron Oxide [rust], well…how about Copper Oxide too. I am making [black] Copper (II) Oxide by first dissolving Copper (II) Sulfate penta Hydrate (CuSO4 * 5H20) crystals in water to form an aqueous Cu+2 solution. Then I take Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) and add...

We just did a lab in chemistry. My question is in regards to what chemically happened in the lab. this is what happened macroscopically: procedures: 1.) Copper Chloride Dihydrate is put into water. 2.) One aluminum ball (regular Al that u can get in stores) is put inside this mixuture (1)...

What is the maximum load that could be suspended from a copper wire of length 1.9 m and radius 1.2 mm without breaking the wire? Copper has an elastic limit of 2.9 x 10^8 Pa and a tensile strength of 4.3 x 10^8 Pa. Give your answer in Newtons (N). Any thoughts? I'm completely lost.

i'm having this ridiculous argument over at: http://www6.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.php?t=144514&page=1&pp=20 where we are having a not so friendly disscusion of wire burn in. basicly my question is this does regular copper wire change it's sound if get's "burned-in" over time. now I'm...

When I stick some Copper (II) Sulfate * Pentahyrate into the blue flame of my butane torch, it turns green. When I crush the tiny CuSO4 crystals up into a finer powder and mix them with a mixture of KClO3 and Sugar, then light that on fire, I get a very blue flame. What is happening here? I...

why adding copper to nickel result in reduced magnetism of nickel? :confused:

I was given a small amount of Copper Chloride. When I brought my spatula(dirty ofcourse) the salt turned slightly green. Also when preparing the Sodium extract, I added 1 part CuCl₂ and 3 parts NaCO₃ and 3/4ths water. I stirred it slightly with the spatula, it turned black...
