Only if the acid is above the melting point of copper. However, the copper might dissolve in acid if the acid is oxidizing. If it did, copper ions would be present in the solution formed, but there would not be an metallic copper in it.
Sulfuric Acid. The chemical reaction is Cu + 2H2SO4 = CuSO4 + SO2 + 2H2O
Yes, brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, and nitric acid cant "melt" (ie oxidize) both of them. The reaction releases dangerous fumes of nitrogen dioxide and must be performed in a fume hood.
When copper oxide is reacted with an acid such as hydrochloric acid, a chemical reaction occurs to form copper chloride and water. The copper oxide is neutralized by the acid, leading to the formation of a salt and water as products.
The reaction of copper with acid is a chemical change because new substances are formed after the reaction takes place. Copper reacts with acid to form copper ions and hydrogen gas, which are different from the original copper and acid.
Mixing copper with hydrochloric acid would produce copper chloride and hydrogen gas. This reaction would dissolve the copper, forming a blue-green solution of copper chloride. The release of hydrogen gas could be observed as bubbles.
With heat.
It is not recommended to use acid to melt PVC off copper cable as this can release harmful fumes and be dangerous. Instead, it is better to use a mechanical method such as cutting or stripping the PVC off the copper cable to avoid any health hazards.
melt the copper sulfate and see what appers
A coin would dissolve in an acid, not melt. The time taken would depend on the size of the coin, its composition, and the acid used.
Sulfuric Acid. The chemical reaction is Cu + 2H2SO4 = CuSO4 + SO2 + 2H2O
The energy required to melt 1 kg of copper at its melting point of about 1084°C is approximately 205 kJ. Therefore, to melt 2 kg of copper, you would need around 410 kJ of energy.
When copper oxide is reacted with an acid such as hydrochloric acid, a chemical reaction occurs to form copper chloride and water. The copper oxide is neutralized by the acid, leading to the formation of a salt and water as products.

Yes, copper roofs can be affected by acid rain. Acid rain can cause corrosion and pitting on copper surfaces, leading to a greenish patina forming on the roof over time. Regular maintenance and protective coatings can help mitigate the effects of acid rain on copper roofs.
The reaction of copper with acid is a chemical change because new substances are formed after the reaction takes place. Copper reacts with acid to form copper ions and hydrogen gas, which are different from the original copper and acid.
Copper melts at around 1984°F (1085°C), so it is unlikely that a copper coin would melt on a gas fire at 100°F (37.8°C) in 12 hours. The temperature would need to be significantly higher to melt copper.
Mixing copper with hydrochloric acid would produce copper chloride and hydrogen gas. This reaction would dissolve the copper, forming a blue-green solution of copper chloride. The release of hydrogen gas could be observed as bubbles.
