because t isnt in the Periodic Table. if it is in the periodic table then it only has one name. also it has more than one name because it is two solutions mixed together to make it

When you heat copper oxide and magnesium why do you get grey powder?

You get a grey powder because magnesium is higher up in the reactivity series than Copper - (magnesium is more reactive than copper) therefore when you heat it up there is a displacement reaction. That grey powder is actully magnesium oxide and copper e.g Copper oxide + magnesium = magnesium oxide and copper.


How do you separate copper from copper oxide?

I think you mean how do you extract copper from copper oxide, if so here's your answer. Take your copper oxide and heat it with something that is more reactive than copper. Carbon is a good example. The more reactive carbon will oxidise, taking the oxygen from the copper oxide leaving copper. copper oxide + carbon --> copper + carbon dioxide 2Cu0 + C --> 2Cu + CO2


Why would a large lump of copper oxide react slower with sulfuric than if copper oxide is used in powdered form?

A large lump of copper oxide has a smaller surface area exposed to the sulfuric acid compared to powdered copper oxide. This limits the contact between the copper oxide and the acid, leading to a slower reaction. Powdered copper oxide has a larger surface area, allowing for more efficient and faster reaction with the sulfuric acid.


How are copper and silver different?

Copper is a reddish-brown metal that is a better conductor of electricity compared to silver, which is a white metal. Silver is more resistant to corrosion than copper and is more reflective. Copper tends to be more affordable than silver.


Will copper displace the iron from iron oxide?

Yes, copper can displace iron from iron oxide through a displacement reaction where copper will replace iron in the compound. This reaction will form copper oxide and free iron.


Is copper more reactive than tin?

No, copper is less reactive than tin. Tin reacts readily with acids, but copper is less reactive and tends to form a protective layer of oxide on its surface, making it more resistant to corrosion.


Is copper more reactive than carbon?

Yes, copper is more reactive than carbon. Copper can react with acids to form copper salts and with oxygen in the air to form copper oxide, while carbon is relatively unreactive and does not readily react with acids or oxygen at room temperature.


Is copper more reactive than gold?

Even though gold and copper are in the same family, copper is much more reactive than gold. This is why Copper rusts more than gold, and why there are so many copper compounds (IE copper silicate...). Copper is higher in the family, giving it these characteristics.


Is Zinc more active than Gold?

Copper is a better conductor than gold cause it has a lower resistivity, but copper forms an oxide layer in atmospheric conditions, which interferes with the flow of electrons, whereas gold doesnt form an oxide layer, meaning it allows far better surface contact and allows the electrons the flow much easier if you get what im getting at?


What is copper thermite?

Copper thermite is a type of thermite where instead of the iron oxide, copper oxide is used instead. The reaction produces pure copper metal, but this thermite gets a little more splattery than the iron thermite.


Why does zinc plus copper oxide equal copper plus zinc oxide?

This is a chemical reaction known as a displacement reaction. Zinc has a higher reactivity than copper, so when zinc is added to copper oxide, it displaces copper from the compound forming zinc oxide and copper metal. This reaction occurs because metals higher in the reactivity series can displace metals lower in the series from their compounds.


Why does magnesium oxide weigh more than magnesium metal?

because it has an oxygen on it. Mg + O > MgO (That's the unbalanced formula)
