cuprous oxide :)
Cu2O is Copper(I) oxide or Cuprous Oxide.
R-CHO + 2Cu2+ + 4OH- ----------> R-COOH + Cu2O + 2H2O where R is the group attached to the aldehyde (CHO)
NOT +2Added:In Cu2O the ion charge is Cu1+, (cuprous oxide, Cu(I) oxide, oxidation state +1) color brownish red (or yellow, depending on how fine the particles are) In CuO the ion charge is Cu2+, (cuprous oxide, Cu(II) oxide, oxidation state +2) color black
The formula Cu2O represents copper(I) oxide, which is a compound composed of copper and oxygen with a 2:1 ratio. It is a red or reddish-brown solid commonly known as cuprous oxide.
The correct chemical formula for copper oxide is Cu2O for copper(I) oxide (cuprous oxide) and CuO for copper(II) oxide (cupric oxide).
Cu2O is Copper(I) oxide or Cuprous Oxide.
Copper I oxide is Cu2O
The chemical formula is Cu2O
Cu2O, where the 2 should be a subscript, is copper(I) oxide or cuprous oxide to give it its old name. It is found naturally as the ore cuprite. It is a red-brown powder, whereas the copper(II) oxide we see when copper is heated is black.
Copper (II) oxide or cupric oxide: CuO.Copper (I) oxide or cuprous oxide: Cu2O.
Copper (II) oxide or cupric oxide: CuO.Copper (I) oxide or cuprous oxide: Cu2O.
Cuprous oxide, or copper (I) oxide, Cu2O, is a red powder.Cupric oxide, or copper (II) oxide, CuO, is a black powder.

The systematic name of Cu2O is copper(I) oxide. It is an inorganic compound consisting of copper and oxygen, where copper is in the +1 oxidation state. It is commonly known as cuprous oxide.
Copper (I) Oxide or Cuprous Oxide
Cuprous oxide or Copper(I) oxide is found as the reddish mineral cuprite.
