What is the color of copper carbonate when heated?

When copper carbonate is heated, it changes from its green color to black copper oxide.


Does carbonate produce copper oxide when heated?

Carbonate by itself is an ion that does not contain copper and therefore could not produce copper if heated. However, because carbonate is a negatively charged ion, no substantial number of carbonate ions can exist stably except in association with an equal number of positively charged cations to neutralize the electrical charge of the carbonate ions. If these cations are cations of copper, then copper oxide can be produced by heating the copper carbonate salt.


When copper carbonate is heated what ionic compound remains?

When copper carbonate is heated, it decomposes into copper oxide, releasing carbon dioxide gas. The remaining ionic compound is copper oxide (CuO).


What type of reaction occurs when copper carbonate is heated?

When copper carbonate is heated, a thermal decomposition reaction occurs. This reaction causes copper carbonate to break down into copper oxide and carbon dioxide gas, which is released as a byproduct.


Why does green copper carbonate go black?

Because it undergoes thermal decomposition. If you give heat to Copper (II) carbonate, it will decompose to form Copper (II) oxide. Instead of saying green copper carbonate, I guess it is safer and better to say copper (II) carbonate.


What is the symbol for the equation of the reaction that occurs when copper carbonate is heated?

The symbol for the reaction that occurs when copper carbonate is heated is: CuCO3(s) → CuO(s) + CO2(g)


What is the black solid formed when copper carbonate is heated?

This compound is the copper(II) oxide, CuO.


What is a blue solid that produces a black solid when heated?

Either sodium carbonate or copper carbonate


Which salt changes from green to black on heating?

Copper(II) sulfate changes from green to black when heated due to the decomposition of copper(II) ions to copper(I) ions, which are black in color.


What solid residue will turn from green to black if heated?

Copper(II) nitrate will turn from green to black when heated due to the decomposition of the compound. The green color is due to the presence of copper ions, which decompose into copper oxide when heated, resulting in the color change to black.


What happens to magnesium carbonate copper carbonate zinc carbonate and calcium carbonate when they are heated?

They form magnesium oxide, copper oxide etc. and will form carbon dioxide as a byproduct.


What gas is given off when copper carbonate heated?

carbon dioxide [CuCO3 --> CuO + CO2]
