Copper (II) oxide, CuO is a compound containing a metal - copper, and a non-metal - oxygen. It is therefore has ionic bonding.
Remember:
Metal - non-metal = ionic bonding
Non-metal - non-metal = covalent bonding
Metal - metal = metallic bonding

Copper II Hydroxide to Copper II Oxide?
CuO which is Copper(II) Oxide so... Cu(OH)2 + heat -----> CuO
Why is copper II sulphate an ionic or covalent bond?
Copper II Sulphate is an Covalent bonding because the charge is (+)ve
What is the correct name for the compound with the formula Cu OH 2?
The formula is Cu(OH)2 meaning that there are 2 oxygens and 2 hydrogens, not just 2 hydrogens. The compound is called Copper (II) Hydroxide.
What is CuH2?
i believe its copper (II) hydroxide
Is copper II Hydroxide a base?
yesss :)
Copper II Hydroxide to Copper II Oxide?
CuO which is Copper(II) Oxide so... Cu(OH)2 + heat -----> CuO

Copper II Sulphate is an Covalent bonding because the charge is (+)ve
Is copper soluble in sodium hydroxide?
Metallic copper does not react with sodium hydroxide. But if sodium hydroxide is added into a solution of copper ions, it would form Copper(II) Hydroxide. It is a precipitate which is insoluble in water.
What is CuH2?
i believe its copper (II) hydroxide
Is copper II Hydroxide a base?
yesss :)

What results from copper II nitrate reacting with sodium hydroxide?
Solutions of copper (II) compounds will undergo precipitation reactions with sodium hydroxide solution when mixed together to produce a bright blue precipitate of copper (II) hydroxide and a solution of a sodium salt.The chemical equations for the reaction between Copper (II) nitrate and Sodium hydroxide are as follows:Cu(NO3)2 (aq) + 2NaOH (aq) → Cu(OH)2 (s) + 2NaNO3 (aq)Copper II nitrate + sodium hydroxide → copper II hydroxide + sodium nitrate
What happen when the copper II hydroxide and sodium nitrate heated but did not stir?
Copper(II) hydroxide and sodium nitrate are thermally decomposed to oxides by heating.
Is copper II hydroxide a compound or an element?
The answer is compound!
What is the common name for copper hydroxide?
Copper(II) hydroxide can be called also cupric hydroxide.The first is the recommended IUPAC name.
Is copper II bromide covalent or ionic?
