In an experiment, the mass of a piece of copper is determined to be 8.56 g. Then the copper is reacted with sufficient oxygen gas to produce solid copper(II) oxide.

a. If copper has a density of 8.94 g/cm3, what is the volume (cm3) of the copper?


b. How many copper atoms are in the sample?


c. Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction.


d. Classify the type of reaction.


e. How many grams of oxygen are required to completely react with the copper?


f. How many grams of copper(II) oxide will result from the reaction of 8.56 g of Cu and 3.72 g of oxygen?


g. How many grams of copper(II) oxide will result in part f. if the yield for the reaction is 85.0 percent?
