Heating copper in air the copper oxide CuO is formed.
oxygen
When a copper wire is heated in a Bunsen burner flame, the copper's color changes to become a glowing red. It won't be restored to its original appearance after cooling. Instead, it becomes a black material called copper (II) oxide, which is 79.9% copper and 20.1% oxygen (was 100% copper before it was burned). This chemical change occurred as the oxygen in the air combined with the copper during the heating process.
Oxygen. The product is copper oxide.
Solid copper appears to gain mass when heated in air, because the copper reacts with oxygen in the air to form copper oxide. However, the actual mass of the copper does not increase; the mass of the solid increases by a value equal to the mass of oxygen removed from the air.
The metal might be copper. When copper is heated, it reacts with oxygen in air forming copper oxide which is black in colour.
Because its called copper oxide from when the copper coin mixes with oxygen in the air. thats why alot of old coins are black.
Metals in the reactivity series from aluminium to copper react with oxygen in the air to form the metal oxide. Aluminium and Zinc reacts very quickly, Iron reacts slowly at room temperature. Tin, Lead and Copper reacts with Oxygen in air when heated. Silver, Gold and Platinum do not react with Oxygen in air
The substance in the air is oxygen. Copper + oxygen= copper oxide.

The copper becomes black!
Heating copper in air the copper oxide CuO is formed.
oxygen
A reaction of oxydation with the oxygen from air.

the copper reacts with 02 in the air to make copper oxide, which is black 2Cu+O2--> 2Cuo
