    Green liquid with symbol Ar and atomic number 7. Makes a compound that is corrosive to copper when mixed with Galine and Sanite, and a compound that produces clouds when exposed to air when mixed with Regalite. The real element 7 is nitrogen; and Ar = argon. Atium Mistborn: Metal. Forms the body and power of the shard Ruin. If an Allomancer ...

    After the Second World War, there was a growing interest in green patinated copper sheets, which were intended primarily for architectural use. [18] [19] [20] Technologies for anodic oxidation of titanium, and later niobium and tantalum, have evolved since the mid-1960s. Technology for the anodic oxidation of stainless steel was developed too ...

    Unoxidized copper wire (left) and oxidized copper wire (right) The East Tower of the Royal Observatory, Edinburgh, showing the contrast between the refurbished copper installed in 2010 and the green color of the original 1894 copper. Copper does not react with water, but it does slowly react with atmospheric oxygen to form a layer of brown ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper(I)_oxide

    Copper(I) oxide or cuprous oxide is the inorganic compound with the formula Cu 2 O. It is one of the principal oxides of copper , the other being copper(II) oxide or cupric oxide (CuO).The compound can appear either yellow or red, depending on the size of the particles. [ 2 ]

    Like oxide, fluoride is a highly basic anion [19] and is known to stabilize metal ions in high oxidation states. Both copper(III) and even copper(IV) fluorides are known, K 3 CuF 6 and Cs 2 CuF 6, respectively. [1] Some copper proteins form oxo complexes, which also feature copper(III). [20]

    Patina (/ p ə ˈ t iː n ə / pə-TEE-nə or / ˈ p æ t ɪ n ə / PAT-ih-nə) is a thin layer that variously forms on the surface of copper, brass, bronze, and similar metals and metal alloys (tarnish produced by oxidation or other chemical processes), or certain stones [1] and wooden furniture (sheen produced by age, wear, and polishing), or ...

  8. Copper(II) oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper(II)_oxide

    Copper(II) oxide or cupric oxide is an inorganic compound with the formula CuO. A black solid, it is one of the two stable oxides of copper, the other being Cu 2 O or copper(I) oxide (cuprous oxide). As a mineral, it is known as tenorite, or sometimes black copper.

  9. Oxidizing acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidizing_acid

    Oxidizing acids, being strong oxidizing agents, can often oxidize certain less reactive metals, in which the active oxidizing agent is not H + ions. For example, copper is a rather unreactive metal, and has no reaction with concentrated hydrochloric acid.
