Whoops

I know I still haven't posted the pics. I will do it soon. i juts need to find the cmaera that i used. Well I was searching up info from my experiment and I have bad and good news. Well all the materials are supposed to react with the copper. However they react differently

The bleach contains Sodium hypochlorite which is a chemical compound consisting of sodium, oxygen and chlorine. This is really reactive with metals. When in prescence with copper it forms copper chloride. This is a type of verdigris which is the the green powdery stuff that formed.

The vingear reacts differently as it actually cleans the copper. It contains this acid which actually gets rid of the copper oxide which has formed. See when i started the epxeriment the copper had already oxidized because it was exposed to oxygen. But when I got copper pipes out of the solution it had become shiny because the copper oxide had disoolved. This is why the solution had turned bluey. Because the dissolved copper oxide had mixed with the vinegar solution which had water in it. Lemon is also acts similaryliy to vinegar i think. But I'm not really sure

I scrpaed off the greenish stuff ont he copper pipes which had been in the bleach solution. When I scraped it off the copper was shiny. I think because I also scraped off the copper oxide which is a browny colour. In one of my pipes there was also a hole.
