If copper is present, the solution will turnblue...
In standardized test method ASTM D130 for oils or D4048 for grease, the rating of 1A is given for appearance of freshly polished copper coupons, and 1B indicates slight tarnish. The ratings proceed further down the scale as corrosion staining of the test coupon increases, with 4 being the worst (severe corrosion) typically appearing as a blackened test coupon.
Yes sodium hypochlorite does react with copper. I did the test where copper was immersed in bleach and the parts near the surface where turning verdigris while the lower ones where getting coroded in a higher rate.
The colour of any sample containing copper ions burns with a bluish green flame in the flame test.
In the presence of water the white anhydrous copper sulfate become blue.
Because in a Belstein test, the copper halide should be able to volatilize to produce green flame, an indication that a halogen is present in the compound. Copper fluoride is not volatile., hence this kind of test is not suitable for the detection of fluorine.

Copper in the urine isn't anything to worry about per say. A 24 hour urine copper test simply measures the amount of copper in the urine. There is a genetic disorder called Wilson's disorder that affects how the body processes copper.
Copper exhibits good resistance to corrosion in urban, marine, and industrial atmospheres. The major factors that control the initial rate of attack on copper are moisture, temperature, and the level of pollution. Soon after exposure of copper to the atmosphere copper oxidize, the bright copper surface takes on a dull tan tarnish. After a few years thik tarnish gradually changes to dark brown or black. At a later stage the corrosion products of copper turn green. The corrosion rate of several types of copper in a 20-yr test averaged 1 pm/yr (0.05 mpy) in an industrial atmosphere, 0.8 pm/yr (0.03 mpy) in a marine atmosphere, and 0.5 pm/yr (0.02 mpy) in a rural atmosphere
This is called a corrosion test, frequently used in quality control of materials.

I would start by getting a water test done to determine what water treatment is necessary.
A magnet does not adhere to copper!
Because its a metal
The chemical stress test is used to evaluate the heart.

ASTM-d130 is a test for evaluation of lubricant additives tendancy to corrode yellow metals. Yellow metal corrosion has become a more critical factor as the EP additives in gear oils have become more concentrated. Older gearboxes with yellow parts (brass, bronze, copper) synchros, and other parts will be damaged by high additive content in some new oils. The ASTM-d130 test rates oils by imersing a prepared copper strip in the lubricant at 2 temperatures in the range typical of the gearbox in service (212 degrees, and 250 degrees F). The ratings go from a "1a" with slight discoloration, but barely noticeable, to a "4c" which is severely corroded, blackened, and pitted. Use care with older gearboxes and highly corrosive oils.
