Other Experimental
Lustrous, ductile, malleable metal; Mohs' hardness: 3.0; specific resistance: 1.673 microohm/cm; heat of fusion: 48.9 cal/g; heat capacity (solid): 0.092 cal/g/deg C at 20 °C, (liq): 0.112 cal/g/deg C; becomes dull when exposed to air; two naturally occurring isotopes: 63 (69.09%), 65 (30.91%); 9 artificial isotopes;Very slowly attacked by cold hydrochloric acid or dil sulfuric acid; readily by dil nitric acid, and by both not conch sulfuric acid and hydrobromic acid. It is also attacked by acetic acid and other organic acids.;COPPER FORMS TWO SERIES OF SALTS, CU(1+) AND CU(2+) BOTH VALENCE TYPES FORM COMPLEX IONS THAT ARE STABLE.;Ductile, excellent conductor of electricity. Complexing agent, coordination numbers 2 and 4. More resistant to atmospheric corrosion than iron, forming green layer of hydrated basic carbonate. Readily attacked by alkalies. Noncombustible, except as powder.;ELECTRONEGATIVITY (PAULING SCALE): 1.90;Dissolved readily in nitric acid and hot concentrated sulfuric acids slowly, but only when exposed to the atmosphere.
Stability
BECOMES DULL WHEN EXPOSED TO AIR. IN MOIST AIR GRADUALLY BECOMES COATED WITH GREEN BASIC CARBONATE.
