Copper(I) ion undergoes a self-redox reaction to form solid copper and copper(II) ion.
a) Write the balanced equation for the reaction in water.
b) In water, the equilibrium constant for this reaction is ≈106. But if the copper(I) is dissolved in DMSO, the equilibrium constant for the reaction is ≈2. Suggest an explanation.
ANSWER
a) the balanced reaction is given as,
2 [Cu(H2O)6]+ -------> Cu(s) + [Cu(H2O)6]2+ In this given reaction aqeous complex of Cu ions are written, we can also write it as, 2 Cu+(aq) --------> Cu(s) + Cu2+(aq).
b) in water medium the equillibrium constant is 106, this means that the concentration of products are very greater than the reactant Cu+ . This is due to the fact that stability of water complex of Cu2+ ion is more stable than water complex of Cu+.
The stability of the complex depends on the ligand attached to the metal ion. As water ligand stabilising Cu2+ ion, here in DMSO ligand in DMSO solvent stabilizes more to the Cu+ ion. hence the equillibrium constant for this reaction in DMSO solvent is only 2.

Solid copper can be produced by passing gaseous ammonia over solid copper (II) oxide at high temperatures. The other products of the reaction are nitrogen gas and water vapor. The balanced equation for this reaction is: 2NH3(g)+3CuO(s)->N2(g)+3Cu(s)+3H2O(g) What is the theoretical yield of solid copper that should form when 18.1 g of NH3 is reacted with 90.4 g of CuO? If only 45.3 g of copper is actually collected, what is the percent yield?
