Properties and solubilities of copper
- Atomic weight, 63.6;
- specific gravity, 8.94 Weight per cubic foot
- cast copper, 542 lb.;
- rolled copper, 555 lb. Weight per cu. in., 0.32 lb.
- Copper occurs chemically as cuprous compounds,
- copper has a chemical equivalent of 63.6, as a dyad element 31.8
- The melting-point of copper is 1080° C
- It is a red metal, but thin
sheets transmit a greenish-blue light, and it also shows the same greenish
blue tint when in a molten condition
- The boiling-point of copper is about 2000° C.
- Molten copper has a great tendency to dissolve hydrogen,
carbonic oxide, and sulphur dioxide
- On heating copper to a low red heat, far below its melting point, it
becomes covered with a film or scale which consists of a mixture of the
cuprous and cupric oxides.
- Copper exhibits a greater afiinity for sulphur than do any of the other
Metals
- The best solvents for copper are nitric acid
Influence of Impurities on the Properties of Copper
- Bismuth
Bismuth is the most damaging contamination in copper, as small amounts
render the copper unworkable
- lead
Lead can be liquefied with copper in all extents, yet the larger piece of it
very well may be liquated out of the compound by a delicate warmth
Lead is to be found in all customary business copper, however it isn't
attractive in any extent over 0.10 percent., and the lower the extent
under 0.10 percent
- Iron
