    Error Value
Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the confusion surrounding the existence and accepted values of copper chloride compounds, specifically CuCl3 and CuCl5. Participants clarify that these compounds do not exist in standard chemistry, as copper typically exists in +1 or +2 oxidation states, represented by CuCl and CuCl2. The conversation emphasizes the importance of accurate chemical nomenclature and suggests using Google to find relevant tables or databases for accepted values of known compounds.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of oxidation states in transition metals
  • Familiarity with copper chloride compounds, specifically CuCl and CuCl2
  • Basic knowledge of percent error calculations in chemistry
  • Ability to conduct effective online searches for chemical data
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the oxidation states of transition metals, focusing on copper
  • Explore the properties and applications of CuCl and CuCl2
  • Learn how to calculate percent error in experimental chemistry
  • Investigate online databases for chemical compounds and their accepted values
USEFUL FOR

Chemistry students, educators, and researchers seeking clarity on copper compounds and their properties, as well as those interested in accurate chemical data retrieval methods.

% error --finding the accepted value

I'm having trouble finding the accepted value for CuCl3 and CuCl5. My teacher told me that the accepted values for the two compounds were located on the web. I don't know where to go to find the accepted values of the two compounds. I need to find the accepted value so that i can find the percent error for both of the compunds.
If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Uh, CuCl3 and CuCl5 don't exist. Copper normally only exists in +1 or +2 oxidation state as in CuCl or CuCl2. Are you referring to some copper chloride complex (ion)? CuCl3- and CuCl5-3 I could see. What is the kind of value you are looking for these compounds?

for CuCl3 and CuCl5.

Have you tried a Google search for something like "table of xxxx"?
