The copper ion is obtained by the loss of the outermost two electrons of the copper atom. It has a positive valence of 2 and is written as Cu 2+ , usually blue, copper ion Cu 2+ stay aqueous solution In fact Hydrated ion [Cu(H two O) four ] 2+ Exists in the form of, hydration Copper ions are blue, so our common copper Salt solution Most are blue. At room temperature, Cu 2+ The precipitation starts when pH=5.2, and is complete when pH=6.4.

Physical and chemical properties

towards Cupric chloride When water is added to the solution, the concentration of chloride ion in the solution decreases, and the amount of hydrated copper ion increases relatively. The solution mainly presents the color of hydrated copper ion (blue). So we see copper chloride dilute solution It is generally blue.
In the same way nitric acid In the reaction with copper, Dilute nitric acid The solution obtained by reaction with copper is blue, and Concentrated nitric acid The solution obtained by reaction with copper is green. This is because concentrated nitric acid and copper Reaction time , producing a large number of Nitrogen dioxide The gas and nitrogen dioxide are yellow when dissolved in the solution. The yellow of nitrogen dioxide is mixed with the blue of hydrated copper ion to form the green we see.

Schematic diagram of copper ion structure
And in Cupric chloride In the solution of 2+ , and Chloride ion Cl - Tetrachloro copper complex ion [CuCl4] formed by combining with copper ion 2- The color of the ion is yellow. When adding in saturated copper chloride solution sodium chloride Or others chloride And access Hydrogen chloride The green of the solution will be further "yellowed", making the solution bright yellow green, while the solution adhered to the white porcelain wall will be yellow, which is related to the physical tension that changes the tetrachloride copper ion equilibrium constant In the solution, a large amount of water makes the conversion of copper tetrachloride ion reversible, so it cannot be made yellow. According to the principle of optics, blue and yellow Mixed color It is green, which is why the common Cupric chloride The reason why the solution is green.

Generate copper
Copper ion can pass through Reduction reaction Produce copper, which can generate copper ions through oxidation reaction, Copper salt Dissolve in water or melt to get copper ion, which can be mixed with Hydroxyl ion Generate water insoluble Cu(OH)2 Blue precipitation, which is also one of the methods for testing copper ions. Copper ions exist in Alkaline solution Sediment will be formed in.
Copper ions can be used to kill viruses. Copper ions can be properly added in the swimming pool, so the water in the swimming pool is usually blue.
