What is copper made from?
Copper is an element, it is not made from anything else. It is a building block for other substances.
How is electrolysis used to purify metals?
TRUE!
Copper is a good conductor of electricity because its electrons are what?
The copper (the positive protons) hold the inner negative electrons securely, but the outer most negative electrons of the copper atom are easily disloged and become free electrons, apply a potential difference (volts) between terminals of say a car battery, and the terminals are joined by copper wire then electrons will flow from one terminal to the other - the electron flow is from negative to positive terminal.Hope this helps I have just answered the question simply!
Why does copper sulfate solution turn clear and magnesium develop a copper coating?
Redox! The magnesium is reducing the copper while the copper is oxidizing the magnesium. In other words, magnesium is giving electrons to the copper to bring the copper back to its metallic form while the magnesium is leaving the metal to be part of the solution as magnesium sulfate, which is colorless.
What metal has to be obtained using electricity?
It is used as a way for electrons to travel. The presure of the electrons on each other gives you the voltage, and the speed at wich they travel gives you the current.
How does copper conduct electricity?
Copper conducts electricity by "musical electrons" like other conductors do. Let's look at copper and see what's up. Copper atoms in a copper wire all form some kind of metallic crystal structure. Not all the electrons in the valence shells of the copper atoms are "locked in place" in this structure. They are free to move around, and are said to be "free electrons" in this application. As they are not "bound" in the structure, the electrons can be made to move fairly easily. They can contribute to current flow. If we apply a voltage across the wire from end to end, electrons will enter one end of the wire and electrons will emerge from the other. Not the same electrons, mind you. Put some in one end, some come out the other. It could also be said that some of the electrons of the copper are at Fermi energy levels that are in what is said to be the "conduction band" for copper. The conduction band is the minimum energy level necessary for electrons of a given material to be in to support conduction in that material. If the Fermi energy levels of the valence band electrons is up in the conduction band, then that material is a conductor. Copper is this way.
Why pure copper is ductile and malleable?
Copper is a metal and metals got free electrons which are not allococated to a specific nucleus. These free electrons slide over each other and causes the ductile and malleable properties of metals.

What are resistors and what are they important?
Resistors are a material that resists the flow of electrons. The resistors are materials that resist electric current energy to be changed into other forms.

Is copper a metal that has components?
Copper is a metal, but does it have components? Depends on what you mean by components. It has the same "components" as other elements, such as protons, neutrons and electrons. But it isn't mixed with anything else, as in an alloy.
How many neutrons in copper 65?
Cu 65 has the same number of protons as any other copper, which is 29. It also has 29 electrons since the charge is neutral. The number 65 only changes the number of neutrons, which in this case would be 36.
What is copper in?
Copper is one of the basic elements--in other words, pure copper contains nothing but copper. Each copper atom contains 29 protons, 29 electrons, and usually around 34 or 35 neutrons. The atomic symbol for copper is Cu.
