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.

How to Extract copper out of copper nitrate?

To extract copper from copper nitrate, you can heat the copper nitrate in a crucible to decompose it into copper oxide, releasing nitrogen dioxide gas. Then, reduce the copper oxide to copper metal by heating it with carbon in a reducing atmosphere, such as hydrogen or carbon monoxide. The copper metal will be left behind as a residue in the crucible, which can then be collected and purified.


How do you balance the equation silver nitrate plus copper metal equals silver metal plus copper nitrate?

If the copper nitrate formed is copper (I) nitrate, the equation balances with one atom of each metal and one formula weight of each nitrate. If the copper nitrate formed is copper (II) nitrate, the balanced equation is: 2 AgNO3 + Cu -> 2 Ag + Cu(NO3)2.


Copper and silver solution?

When copper is added to a silver nitrate solution, a redox reaction occurs where copper displaces silver in the solution to form copper nitrate and elemental silver. This reaction is used in silver plating processes.


Which has more matter in it sulfur or copper?

Copper has more matter than sulfur because copper has a higher atomic mass (63.55 g/mol) compared to sulfur (32.06 g/mol). This means that a given mass of copper will contain more atoms and thus more matter compared to the same mass of sulfur.


Is copper powder behaves like iron powder when it mixed with sulfur?

When copper powder is mixed with sulfur, it does not react in the same way as iron powder does. Copper and sulfur do not have a strong affinity for each other, so they typically do not react vigorously like iron and sulfur do, which form iron sulfide. Copper sulfide is a more stable compound that can be formed under specific conditions.


What is the mass of copper if it contains same number of atoms as present in 3.2 grams of sulphur?

To find the mass of copper containing the same number of atoms as in 3.2 grams of sulfur, we first determine the number of moles of sulfur. Sulfur has a molar mass of approximately 32 g/mol, so 3.2 grams corresponds to 0.1 moles of sulfur. Since copper (Cu) has a molar mass of about 63.5 g/mol, the mass of copper that has the same number of moles (0.1 moles) is calculated as 0.1 moles × 63.5 g/mol = 6.35 grams. Therefore, the mass of copper is 6.35 grams.


What elements make up copper sulfate?

The elements in copper sulphate are copper, sulphur and oxygen. Copper sulphate is a compound, made up of three elements. The symbol for this compound is CuS04.


What flame colour does copper chloride give?

Flame colours depend on just the metal ion. All copper compounds give the same colour, green.


What is the formula for copper nitride?

Depends on the oxidation state of the copper ions. If it is copper (I), which is the same as Cu+, then the formula would be Cu3N.On the other hand, if it is copper (II), which is the same as Cu2+, then the formula would be Cu3N2


How do you balance iron plus copperInitrate yields ironII nitrate plus copper?

To balance the chemical equation for the reaction between iron and copper(II) nitrate yielding iron(II) nitrate and copper, you would need to make sure there are the same number of each type of atom on both sides of the equation. The balanced equation is: Fe + Cu(NO3)2 -> Fe(NO3)2 + Cu


Which of gold and copper stay the same color on a roof?

Gold remains the same color on a roof as it does not corrode or tarnish. Copper develops a greenish patina over time due to oxidation, changing its original color.
