What happens when HCl mixes with heated copper?

When HCl (hydrochloric acid) mixes with heated copper, the copper reacts with the acid to form copper(II) chloride and hydrogen gas. The reaction releases heat and the copper may also appear to be dissolved as it reacts with the acid.


What is the chemical reaction between copper and hydrochloric acid (Cu HCl)?

When copper reacts with hydrochloric acid (Cu HCl), it forms copper chloride (CuCl2) and hydrogen gas (H2).


Which acids dissolve copper?

Acids known to dissolve copper include hydrochloric acid (HCl), nitric acid (HNO3), and sulfuric acid (H2SO4). These acids can react with copper to form soluble copper compounds, allowing the metal to dissolve.


What is the acid that reacts with copper 2 carbonate to give a blue solution?

The acid that reacts with copper(II) carbonate to give a blue solution is hydrochloric acid (HCl). This reaction forms a solution of copper(II) chloride, which appears blue due to the presence of copper ions.


How NOCl reacts with water?

The reaction with water is "messy"- initially hydrochloric acid and nitrous acid are formed. Oxygen from the air will oxidise and produce nitric acid and you may even get reddish fumes of NO2 that depends on how much water is present to "mop up" the NO2 NOCl +H2O ----> HNO2 + HCl (nitrous acid and hydrochloric acid) The HNO2 nitrous acid will disproportionate: 3HNO2 -> OH3+ + NO3- + 2NO Oxygen present in the water will react with the NO (nitric oxide) 2NO + O2 ->2NO2 NO2 will hydrolyse to form nitric and nitrous acid:- 2NO2 +H2O -> HNO3 + HNO2 A net equation in lots of water with sufficient O2 from the air will go right through to nitric acid and HCl


When silver nitrate reacts with hydrochloiric acid what reaction takes place?

A double displacement reaction takes place, producing Silver Chloride and Nitric acid


Which acid reacts with copper carbonate to produce copper chloride carbon dioxide and water?

Since copper chloride is produced, the acid must contain a chloride atom. The acid that fits this criterion is hydrochloric acid.


What gas is given off when Cu reacts with HCL?

Hydrogen gas is given off when copper reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCl) according to the reaction: Cu + 2HCl -> CuCl2 + H2.


What is the name of the gas released when malachite reacts with hydrochloric acid?

When malachite (copper carbonate) reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCl), carbon dioxide gas (CO2) is released.


Why does HCl create more gas than nitric acid on when dissolving sea shells?

HCl is a stronger acid and will dissolve more of the shell than an equivalent concentration of nitric acid.


What are 7 common laboratory acids?

Hydrofluoric acid (HF) Hydrochloric acid (HCl) and Nitric Acid (HNO3)


What salt is produced when copper oxide reacts with hydrochloric acid?

Zn + HCl = ZnCl + H the will be hydrogen and it will make a squeaky pop noise
