What is the metallic ion in copper 2 chloride?

+2 oxidation state


What elements make up copper chloride?

Copper chloride is composed of one copper (Cu) ion and two chloride (Cl) ions. The chemical formula for copper (II) chloride is CuCl2.


Why is the II in copper II chloride important?

the II means that the charge of the copper, in this case, is +2, rather than, say, +1, which is copper's other possible charge. the formula for copper II chloride is CuCl2, rather than copper I chloride, which is simply CuCl. for all transition metals which have multiple charges, it is necessary to state the particular charge thet the atom is using.


What is the formula for the compound copper 2 chloride?

CuCl2 is Copper (II) chloride , otherwise known as 'cupric chloride'. The '(II)' indicates the oxidation state of the copper in the combination. Two of copper's electrons are involved with combining with the chloride ions; one electron to each chloride ion.


What is the formula for hydrate copper II Chloride Tetra hydrate?

The formula for copper (II) chloride tetrahydrate is CuCl2·4H2O. This means there are two chloride ions for every one copper ion, and four water molecules are associated with each formula unit of copper (II) chloride.


What is the chemical formula for copper (II) chloride?

There are two kinds of copper chloride. Copper(I) chloride is CuCl. Copper(II) chloride is CuCl2.


Copper II chloride aluminum?

When copper(II) chloride reacts with aluminum, redox reaction occurs. Aluminum oxidizes to aluminum chloride and copper(II) ions are reduced to metallic copper. The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is: 3CuCl2 + 2Al -> 2AlCl3 + 3Cu. The reaction is exothermic and releases a significant amount of heat.


What is the formulas for the compounds called copper1 chloride and copper 2 chloride?

The formula for copper(I) chloride is CuCl, and the formula for copper(II) chloride is CuCl2. In copper(I) chloride, copper has a +1 oxidation state, while in copper(II) chloride, copper has a +2 oxidation state.


The blue color in the copper sulfate solution is due to the presence of what ion?

Since copper (I) chloride has only limited solubility in water I will assume you mean copper (II) chloride, CuCl2. Then the ions will be Cu2+ and Cl-.


What are the names of compounds in which copper is found?

Some examples are copper(II) sulfate, copper(I) chloride, copper(II) chloride, copper(II) carbonate.


What is the proper formula unit for the combination of copperII ions and chloride ions Cl?

The proper formula unit for the combination of copper(II) ions and chloride ions is CuCl2. In this compound, each copper ion carries a 2+ charge (Cu^2+) and each chloride ion carries a 1- charge (Cl^-). The subscript 2 in the formula indicates that two chloride ions are needed to balance the charge of one copper(II) ion.


What is the charge on a copper chloride ion?

When a copper ion bonds with chlorine, it bonds with 2 chlorine atoms, because copper has a charge of 2+ (?? cf. Added answer below) and chlorine a charge of 1-So to balance each other, the final formula is CuCl2 one copper ion to two chloride ions. The overall charge on any ionic bond is 0. They bond because they balance each other.Added:Cuprous chloride (Cu(I)-chloride) is sparingly soluble in water, but very soluble in concentrated hydrochloric acid as a complex ion of CuCl2-, in which Cu is +1 charged, and Cl has -1 charge. The white solid crystal is CuClOn Cupric chloride (Cu(II)-chloride) there are many more possible complex ions. for this you are referred to the 'Related links' left below this answer page.
