    explore the cycle of copper through many chemical reactions. What we are going to do is take a piece of copper metal put it through a series of reactions that change it¡¦s state of matter and chemical formula‚ but in the end‚ we will return it to it¡¦s normal solid state. Determine the percentage yield (quantitative). Define what happen at level of electron for oxidation/reduction‚ double replacement‚ neutralization and decomposition. There are five reactions that the copper will go through. 1

    Environmental effects of copper Copper can be released into the environment by both natural sources and human actions. Examples of natural sources are wind-blown dust‚ decaying vegetation‚ forest fires and sea spray. Other examples are mining‚ metal production‚ wood production and phosphate fertilizer production. Because copper is released both naturally and through human activity it is very widespread in the environment. Copper is often found near mines‚ industrial settings‚ landfills and waste
