Electrostatic forces and the shape of the crystal lattice.
The particles in copper are close together because it is a type of solid. Solids have a definite shape and mass. Copper is a type of metal, which is a great conductor. Any item with hardness is a solid, for copper is a solid
Electricity passes through atoms in the metal and the closer together they are the better the metal is as a conductor. In copper the atoms are closer together than they are in any other metal.
These are metal bonds.
copper is a metal
Copper is a metal. It is also considered as a mineral as well. You can find traces of copper in your blood.
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.
Yes it is. Only certain gases form diatomic molecules; copper is a metal.
zinc is more reactive than copper hence it displaces the copper in copper sulphate solution to become zinc sulphate and copper metal is formed
If Argon gas and Copper metal were mixed together, they would not react chemically because Argon is an inert gas and Copper is a stable metal. They would simply coexist without interacting with each other.
Yes, a color change will occur. When copper metal is added to silver nitrate solution, a displacement reaction takes place where copper replaces silver in the solution. This leads to the formation of copper nitrate and silver metal, resulting in a change in color from clear to blue as silver particles are formed.
No, copper is a metal.
