One atom. It contains 29 protons in its nucleus with 29 electrons orbitting. Hence copper (Cu) having the atomic number 29.
Copper on the Periodic Table of Elements is Cu. Copper is 1 atom. Sulphur on the Periodic Table of Elements is S. Sulphur is 1 atom. Oxygen on the Periodic Table of Elements is O. Since there is a 4 next to the O, it's 4 atoms of Oxygen. 1 Atom of Copper + 1 Atom of Sulphate + 4 Atoms of Oxygen = 6 Atoms.
The formula for 1 atom of copper and 2 atoms of chlorine is CuCl2, which represents one copper atom bonded to two chlorine atoms.
Copper is normally encountered as metal which is a giant lattice of atoms.
First it helps to know the chemical formula: CuSO4 The number in the subscripts indicate the number of atoms of an element in the compound. If there is no number, then it is implied that there is only one atom. So, there is one atom of copper, one atom of sulfur, and four atoms of oxygen; for a total of six atoms.
The chemical formula for copper sulfate is CuSO4. This means there are three elements in copper sulfate: copper (Cu), sulfur (S), and oxygen (O). In one molecule of copper sulfate, there is one copper atom, one sulfur atom, and four oxygen atoms.
Copper is an element. You can have a single atom or many atoms and it's still copper.
Copper is an element it has only one type of atom
Copper(I) oxide (Cu2O) contains 3 atoms: 2 copper atoms and 1 oxygen atom.
A molecule of copper sulfate (CuSO4) contains one copper atom, one sulfur atom, and four oxygen atoms, totaling to a total of six atoms.
Copper hydroxide has one copper atom, one hydroxide ion (which consists of one oxygen atom and one hydrogen atom), making a total of three atoms in one unit of copper hydroxide.
Copper iodide has one copper atom and one iodide atom in its chemical formula, which is CuI.
Copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate, CuSO4•5H2O, contains one copper atom, one sulfur atom, four oxygen atoms, and ten hydrogen atoms per molecule.
Copper on the Periodic Table of Elements is Cu. Copper is 1 atom. Sulphur on the Periodic Table of Elements is S. Sulphur is 1 atom. Oxygen on the Periodic Table of Elements is O. Since there is a 4 next to the O, it's 4 atoms of Oxygen. 1 Atom of Copper + 1 Atom of Sulphate + 4 Atoms of Oxygen = 6 Atoms.
Elemental copper does not have molecules. Instead it has a "formula unit", which is a single atom.
The formula for 1 atom of copper and 2 atoms of chlorine is CuCl2, which represents one copper atom bonded to two chlorine atoms.
Copper is normally encountered as metal which is a giant lattice of atoms.
Copper on the Periodic Table of Elements is Cu. Copper is 1 atom. Sulphur on the Periodic Table of Elements is S. Sulphur is 1 atom. Oxygen on the Periodic Table of Elements is O. Since there is a 4 next to the O, it's 4 atoms of Oxygen. 1 Atom of Copper + 1 Atom of Sulphate + 4 Atoms of Oxygen = 6 Atoms.
