5g of copper was heated in the presence of oxygen under a bunsen burner. 1g of carbon was added to the result and heated again, which gave copper + co2
2 questions:
1. What is the name of the product obtained through the first reaction and what is the chemical formula?
2. Is that equation correct:
Cu + O = CuO
2(CuO) + C = CO2 + 2Cu

An oxidation/reduction reactions occurs: CuSO4 + Fe -> FeSO4 + Cu Electrons are exchanged in the reaction. In the oxidation half reaction, Iron looses a pair of electrons to become a ferrous ion: Fe -> Fe(+2) + 2e(-) In the reduction reaction, Copper ions acquire a pair of electrons and become Copper metal: Cu(+2) + 2e(-) -> Cu
