What is chemical reaction of burning copper?

Answer 1

Oh, dude, burning copper is like when you take copper and heat it up real hot until it reacts with oxygen in the air to form copper oxide. It's basically copper getting all fiery and turning into a new compound because it's feeling a little adventurous. So yeah, burning copper is just copper showing off its chemistry skills and changing its look for a bit.

Answer 2

Burning copper undergoes a chemical reaction where it combines with oxygen in the air to form copper oxide. The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is: 2Cu + O2 -> 2CuO. The copper metal is oxidized while the oxygen is reduced during this process.

Answer 3

There isn't a reaction really. this is a flame test that shows the basic principle behind the likes of atomic adsorption spectroscopy and the like.

What happens is, copper is heated over a Bunsen burner. in the actual atoms, the outermost electron/s in the outer energy level of the atom become excited due to energy from the flame. They jump to a higher energy level than before, and when they fall back down to the original energy level they emit a photon of light, which accounts for the colour change of the flame

Answer 4

When copper is heated, it reacts with Oxygen (O2) to form CuO (copper oxide)

2Cu + O2 -> 2CuO

Answer 5

If the supply of oxygen is sufficient, the reaction will be 2 Cu + O2 => 2 CuO. If the supply oxygen is restricted, some of the reaction might instead be:

4 Cu + O2 => 2 Cu2O.

Answer 6

At first it will desintegrate to carbon dioxide (gas) and copper oxide (black powder)

Answer 7

2(X+beta)/1.25xt, This is the simple equation, your teacher will be very impressed if you use this shortened answers because it shows you understand the laws of chemistry
