The valences of copper are +1 and +2.
Type your answer here... 2
Its Valency = 2the formula being CuOThe copper donates two electrons to the oxygen and forms one ionic bond.Added:There are two copper oxides, differing in color:if it is black powder, then it is copper(II) oxide CuO (cupric, more common, as in the mineral 'tenoriet')if it is red powder, then it is copper(I) oxide Cu2O (cuprous oxide, as in mineral the 'cupriet' and it occurs in 'Benedict's test' on reducing sugars)
The formula for copper(I) nitride is Cu3N. Nitride has a valency of -3
Copper Chloride

Copper(II) sulphate is written like this because here II denotes the oxidation state of copper or in simple language, it denotes its valency.Copper sometimes shows +1 valency and sometimes +2.So to specify, its valency in a compound, the valency is written in brackets.
The formula for copper(I) nitride is Cu3N. Nitride has a valency of -3
Copper Chloride
It has two valency electrons in its outermost orbital.
Copper II sulphate has variable valency properties, which translates to variable charges.
if you say copper(II) then it means that you are denoting a atom with +2 as valency. and copperIII) means u denote this atom with +3 as valency
Copper disulphide is a compound Assuming the coppers has valency 2 it will have the formula Cu(SO3)2
"Cuprous" is an archaic term for what today is called copper (I), Cu+1.
Group number 1 = Valency 1+group number 2 = valency 2+group number 3 = valency 3+group number 4 = valency 4+ and 4- (some cases) group number 5 = valency 3-group number 6 = valency 2-group number 7 = valency 1-group number 8 = valency 0For the transition elements they will either state Copper (III) Sulphate or it will be like Cu2(SO4)3You can find the valency by the base of sulphate and you know its positive because metals are always positive and are written in the left.Source: I am a GCE O Level Sciences Student (O2)
