What happens when a piece copper wire is heated in the outer region of the flame until its red hot?
The copper wire glows red. Once it cools...the copper reacts with the air to produce copper(II) oxide. This is shown by the black tarnish on the copper wire.
What is the mass of a 27cm3 piece of copper?
4.9
If a piece of copper is heated in the air what will happen to the mass of the piece of metal?
The copper wire glows red. Once it cools...the copper reacts with the air to produce copper(II) oxide. This is shown by the black tarnish on the copper wire.
Is most of the volume occupied by a piece of copper is taken up by the volume of the copper nuclei?
true
What is a copper rimmed wheel?
A rim is the hoop part of the wheel. If the wheel has a tire, the tire will sit on the rim. If that piece is made of copper, then you have a copper rimmed wheel.
When burning copper and rubber what makes the different colors in the flame?
Any piece of copper heated will do the same thing. When heated, the colored coating on the copper is called "scale," and consists of a thin layer of copper oxide on the surface of the copper. Depending on the thickness of the layer and its temperature, the scale can be some very interesting colors, such as red, blue, brown, and pink.
What is charcoal cavity test?
its a test to show or check the presence of certain radicals.. the substance to be tested is put inside the cavity in the charcoal piece . then it is strongly heated for few seconds... the result is analysed by the change in color.. for e.g-copper sulphate will turn red or red scales will appear on it..
Why is it when a piece of copper is folded squashed and heated in air only the outside of the copper is black?
The black coating you see is a coating of copper oxide, which forms when the hot metal reacts with air. no air can reach the inside, so it does not react to form black copper oxide.

What is 22k rate of gold?
The Karet weight of a piece of gold states how much of the piece is actual gold and not silver or copper. A piece that is 22k means that it is 91. 6% pure gold.
When a piece of magnesium is heated in the air it gains weight so where does the extra weight come from?
That comes from the adding oxide. 2 Mg + O2 = 2 MgO. Burning is oxidation.
Take a copper ring that looks like an O and cut a segment so it looks like the letter C Would the gap grow wider or more narrow as the metal expands if you were to heat the metal and explain?
You answered your own question with "as the metal expands." The gap stays proportionally the same, because the whole piece of copper expands when it is heated. It isn't relevant that someone cut out a piece of it, because the copper is completely unaware of this. It expands because you heated it, causing its atoms to move apart. This expansion occurs everywhere in the copper, but obviously not in the gap (there's nothing there but air). You may be thinking something like, "Well then the copper must close the gap," but you have to remember that ALL of the copper expands. You get a bigger version of what you had before you heated it. Tight pipe and machinery fittings are accomplished using this method. Heat it to expand, cool it to shrink.
Does a piece of copper floats in salt water?
Without seeing the piece of copper you have, it's hard to say.An object will displace a volume of water equal to its weight. This is how a ship that weighs over 100,000 tons can float: the volume of the ship is greater than the volume of 100,000 tons of water. The ship pushes aside (or "displaces") 100,000 tons of water, and the rest of the ship rides above the surface.Now for your piece of copper: If it's solid, the copper will weigh more than an equal volume of water. If it can't push aside water equal to its weight, it'll sink. If the copper is hollow, it will weigh less than an equal volume of water, and will float.
What contains only pure copper?
A piece made from refined copper.
How much copper is there in a piece weighing 200 poundsif a certain alloy contains 5.25 copper?
Okay, I'm assuming that you mean 5.25% copper by weight, otherwise there isn't enough information here to solve the problem. 5.25% of 200 lbs = 10.5 lbs
What happens to a piece of magnesium when it is heated?
it become ductile
If you tie piece of copper wire a end of a exhaust.. what will happen?
If a person ties a piece of copper wire at the end of the exhaust pipe on a vehicle the copper is going to heat up. When the copper heats up it will turn a rainbow of colors.
