copper tarnish and turn green because of present of iron in it.
Copper gives off a green flame when burned. So, green.
The copper reacts with the oxygen in water to form copper oxide and hydrogen ions. This is copper oxide is a green compound.
Copper turns green because if forms a coating of copper acetate upon exposure to air and moisture
NO! copper turns green
There is a high copper concentration in your area and the copper that is dug up has corroded into the green sediment you see in the water.
Sorry, but most copper compounds are some shade of blueor green, not colorless at all!
The natural process of oxidation turned the brown copper into a sea green which cannot be completely reversed. This process occurs when air and water meet the copper plates. The green color is copper carbonate, protecting the copper within from being further damage.
It's aged copper so it's like a penny that's why the statue of liberty is green
When copper is placed in salt water, a chemical reaction causes the copper to turn a blue-green color: this is called copper chloride. If you leave copper in salt water long enough beside the change of color, you should also see a blue-green film or powder appear. This is normal.
Hair bleaches in the pool not because of the chlorine, but because of the metals and copper in the water. If the pool has a high concentration of metals and copper, then yes, it will appear or turn a faint green.
Acid in the rain reacted with the copper to turn it green. That is why there is sometimes green on pennies. Acid in the rain reacted with the copper to turn it green.

The word is "oxidation", which in the case of copper is a three-step process where the copper oxidizes to copper oxide, then to cuprous or cupric sulfide, and then to copper carbonate. Copper carbonate is the green colored copper or patina that forms over time. The old name for this green patina is "verdigris".

Copper, monovalent: blue Copper, divalent, in halides: blue-green Copper, divalent, in non-halide compounds: green
yes copper turns green when exposed to moist air for a long time as green metal is a mixture of copper hydroxide and copper carbonate 2CU+H2O+O2 --> CU(OH)2+CUCO3
Copper: burns a blue-green flame
