Why are copper nitrate and sulfur nitrate the same colour?

Well for one reason is on the periodic table the transition metals such as copper, and the non metals such as sulfur are in the same family but not the same group their atomic number is slightly different due to the number of protons, and neutrons. Their atomic mass is quite similar to this is why they are virtually identical.


What are the names of the brothers and sisters of the element copper?

if by brothers and sisters you mean which elements have similar propertys then you only need to look at the column on the periodic table that copper is in. which would be silver and gold.


Which is heavier by volume silver or copper?

Gold has a specific gravity of 19.29, silver has a specific gravity of 10.46. Gold is heavier.


Explain why color is not a good test for distinguishing between pyrite and gold?

Color is not a reliable test for distinguishing between pyrite and gold because both minerals can appear as a brassy yellow color. Other properties, such as hardness and specific gravity, are more useful for distinguishing between the two. Pyrite is harder and heavier than gold, so conducting tests based on these properties is more accurate.


Is gold different from fool's gold?

Yes! Fool's Gold is actually called Iron Pyrite. It is cubic formed iron based crystal that is is a yellow to brass color. It is reflective giving you a "shiny" appearance. Gold on the other hand is a brighter yellow and is the same brightness whether it is in the shade or in the sun! If you shade pyrite with your hand, it will go dull. Gold will stay Yellow! I should also mention, if you hit pyrite with a hammer or another rock, it will shatter or break. Gold should just flatten out. Here is a comparison picture between Pyrite and Gold - http://www.homegrownfun.com/wp-content/uploads/smaller-gold-and-pyrite-400x300.jpg

Which of the two metals stays the same colour aften it has been put on a roof?

Copper remains the same color after being exposed to the elements on a roof. Copper develops a blue-green patina over time, which actually protects the metal from corrosion. Aluminum, on the other hand, may change color or develop a dull appearance due to oxidation.

How do you tell the difference between copper and gold?

Copper is usually reddish-brown in color, while gold is a bright yellow color. Additionally, copper is heavier than gold and has a lower value compared to gold. You can also conduct a streak test by rubbing the metal against a white porcelain tile – copper leaves a reddish-brown streak, while gold leaves a yellow streak.

Can a copper penny and a copper large bell have the same density?

Yes, both a copper penny and a copper large bell can have the same density because they are made of the same material, copper. Density is a physical property of a substance and is determined by the mass of the substance divided by its volume. As long as the copper used in both the penny and the large bell is of the same purity and composition, they can have the same density.


Is copper more reactive than gold?

Even though gold and copper are in the same family, copper is much more reactive than gold. This is why Copper rusts more than gold, and why there are so many copper compounds (IE copper silicate...). Copper is higher in the family, giving it these characteristics.


What is the greater volume 1kg of copper or 1kg of gold?

The volume of a substance is determined by its density and mass. Copper has a density of 8.96 g/cm³ and gold has a density of 19.32 g/cm³. Therefore, 1kg of copper would have a greater volume than 1kg of gold because copper is less dense than gold. In other words, the same mass of copper would take up more space than the same mass of gold due to their differing densities.
