Yes, you can dilute it with deionized water, and if you add NaOH (sodium hydroxide) a drop at a time, a blue precipitate will form, Cu(OH)2. Copper hydroxide. You can test the liquid after several drops at a time with litmus paper to know when it's turned basic. Add more water and heat, stirring until it boils, and the Cu(OH)2 will turn into CuO, copper(ii) oxide. Filter this, and use H2SO4 (sulfuric acid) to drain it into a beaker, then add zinc, which will dissolve and leave you with pure Cu.

Brother presence of Ca,Fe,Al in about 0.1g / L will it affect Cu(OH)2 precipitation?

Love this demonstration, first saw it at my highschool. The reaction is quite violent but really cool to watch.

Man, chemistry has fascinated me from a very early age, when I found my uncle's old flasks, beakers, and test tubes. It's too bad I never actually got into it though, because damn, this stuff is awesome.

Lovely concise demonstration. Thank You

Great video, well-done team, thanks for sharing!

That's an incredible color.

Thanks! I'm brand new to this, so catching on pretty good :D

Our teacher demonstrated this to us on our third day of school and it was awesome!

In our ASAP Chem Class the Nitric Acid was concentrated to 15.8 Molar just a ballpark range

Just beautiful!

I'm doing this lab in a couple days. Now I can't wait.

Beautiful!

Follow up question. Once the NO2 dissolves into solution near the end, what would we have for a final product. Not pure Copper nitrate solution correct?

That's a really awesome blue!

I did that whole process as a laboratory experiment in my chemistry class :D

@nikola96uf he mentions at 1:22 that the water is pulled up after the reaction cools down. when the gas cools, the pressure in the reaction flask is lowered enough to create a sort of vacuum effect

I need your help badly. I am preparing NO2 gas in lab from this reaction by adding 1g of Cu to 2ml of HNO3. But how do i quantify them, how do i present in an article because pressure cannot be calculated iwhile its preparation

Wow that's a lot of NO2, you can prevent the formation of NO2 by using hydrogen peroxide in with the nitric acid, to oxidise the NO2 back to HNO3 as its formed. This way you get more efficiency from the acid, able to react with a larger amount of material.

Wow, that was amazing.

What is the chemical decomposition of the blue color?

Beautiful.

best chemestry question ever!

very nice experiment

I need help. How to get the solubility of copper in nitric acid thanks

This video is helping people after 9 years in chem test

so what is in the flask at the end? I presume nitric acid, water and copper nitrate?

how to know the solubility of the copper in nitric acid?

Now THIS is what every middle and high-school student dreams of doing! :D (I know I did!)

What is the tube called that is transporting the water from one flask to another? How and what is causing the water being absorbed by the tube that goes from one flask to another?

@declan.fleming

9 жыл бұрын

Collectively we just call these delivery tubes. The water is drawn back in in a process of "suck back" - the air in the main flask gets quite hot during the reaction and expands. As the reaction subsides, heat is lost to the surroundings and the gas begins to contract, drawing the water back up the tube as the pressure drops. This would only happen a little but for the water then dissolving the NO2 gas in the flask .. as gas particles dissolve in the water, the pressure drops still further and draws even more water in, dissolving more gas .. etc etc.

what concentration does the acid need to be at

ooooh the blue looks so pretty

You should use low concentrated nitric acid in the second flask because the nitrous gas can disolve in it. It will absorb much more than plain water.

Can i lead this gas into the reciever flask of a distillation of concentrated sulphuric acid and a nitrate salt to create very concentrated nitric acid, near 100%?

Very helpful

can someone explain what exactly the glass wool is doing?

This video is awesome 🇺🇸👑💕

that is such a beautiful colour at 2:10 wow

how long will the blue glow last?

I have some gold with bits of copper that i dont want. Can i use nitric acid to get rid of the copper with out removing the gold?

Thank u very much! :D

The water is also used to recover the nitric acid, right?

now how do you get te copper back out?

The green material produced at first in the reaction is not copper nitrate. Copper nitrate or rather the [Cu(H2O)6]2+ ion is blue. The green color is due to a copper II nitrato complex. Exact structure of these complexes are not known,but equation below is a likely possibility. Equations Cu + 4 H3O+ + 4 NO3− → [Cu(H2O)4(NO3)2] + 2 H2O + 2 NO2 [Cu(H2O)4(NO3)2] + 2 H2O → [Cu(H2O) 6]2+ + 2 NO3−

NICE!!

at 3 points in this reaction I was expecting a explosion and pain

HOW TO TITRATION OF RED COPPER OXIDE ANY IDEA

wow. that's amazing

so cool

What Reaction Type is this?

is this a redox reaction

Nice color

What sorcery is that?

Awesome

As he said, it's there to hinder the hazardous gas from leaking out

I did this with copper coins and i got some orange paste as a product what us that stuff

Cool stuff. Now show us something with fluoroantimonic acid!!!!

I don't think so, remember there is still the Cu(NO3)2 in solution. You might be able to precipitate it out and treat the remaining solution like you suggested, but I would ask your local government or waste disposal service for more specific advice.

I need Mana will this help

The blue green at the start is not copper nitrate-- it is a nitrato complex. The copper 2 ion is blue and is formed when the water is pulled into the reaction vessel.You can find the equation on this video and a literature citation which explains details of the reaction. kzread.info/dash/bejne/epiC29eneNjUpNo.html

Why does cuno3 does not show it's colour without water

Nice sir

I am not getting how is it happening because copper is below hydrogen in reactivity series

In the reaction, isn't it supposed to be NO as a product instead of NO2?

Any way to recover copper from this?

The only question now is: Will this restore my magica?

Because the flask cools down and the gas lowers in volume and sucks in the water which cools down the flask even faster

What about Mercury with antimony oxide.. Red Mercury?
