Copper Carbonate

Copper Carbonate or Copper II Carbonate is a green solid that readily decomposes to form black copper II oxide on heating. Below is a video of copper II carbonate, chemical properties of copper carbonate and the decomposition of copper carbonate.

Decomposition of Copper Carbonate

The thermal decomposition of copper II carbonate experiment is a popular one in a chemistry lab at schools. Below is the chemical equation for the decomposition of copper carbonate to form copper oxide.

This is the correct equation for copper II carbonate decomposition reaction. Copper II Carbonate formula is:
