2Cu + O2 -> 2CuO
Now you have an ionic bond because the oxygen has taken two electrons from copper into it's valance shell. Thus, copper is oxidized; loses electrons.

Which metal Zn or Cu can be oxidized easily?
Zinc is oxidized more easily than copper.
What element is oxidized and which element is reduced in the following reaction Zn plus CuSO4----ZnSO4 plus Cu?
Cu is being reduced and Zn is being oxidized, hence Zn + CuSO4 --> ZnSO4 + Cu
What gets oxidized in electrolytic cell made with nickel and copper electrodes?
Cu(s)

-3.27V
What is the total reduction potential of a cell in which potassium (K) is reduced and copper (Cu) is oxidized?
-3.27V
Which metal Zn or Cu can be oxidized easily?

Is Cu oxidized or reduced in CuO plus H2 yields Cu plus H2O?
Cu is oxidized. The oxidation number goes from 0 in Cu to +2 in CuSO4. S is reduced. The oxidation number goes from +6 in H2SO4 to +4 in SO2. The oxidizing agent is H2SO4 since it causes Cu to be oxidized. The reducing agent is Cu since it causes S in H2SO4 to be reduced.
What element is oxidized and which element is reduced in the following reaction Zn plus CuSO4----ZnSO4 plus Cu?
Cu is being reduced and Zn is being oxidized, hence Zn + CuSO4 --> ZnSO4 + Cu
Why is there a dull white coating on magnesium?
being oxidized by O2
