Students will make quantitative measurements of the products, calculate percent yield, and will complete an independent lab write-up.

In most copper refinery electrolytes the concentration of copper is between 35-60 g/L Cu (typically between 40 and 50 g/L), 120-200 g/L H 2 SO 4 (typically between 150 and 200 g/L), and 0.3-25 g/L Ni. Soluble anode impurities continuously dissolve into the electrolyte, which is why they must be continuously removed from the bleed stream to ...

The poor recovery of copper in C5 (Fig. 6 B) compared with C2 (Fig. 6 A), cannot be explained from experimental data or observations made during column management. These columns were set up and operated similarly for the first 80 days, after which the air flow was shut off in C5.
The SX/EW Process. The SX/EW Process is a hydrometallurgical process since it operates at ambient temperatures and the copper is in either an aqueous environment or an organic environment during its processing until it is reduced to the metal. Because of its dependence on sulfuric acid, the SX/EW Process is at present not a substitute for, but ...
Fig. 1 presents the current density affecting the current efficiency, metal recovery rate, pH, and copper distribution for NH 3 −(NH 4) 2 S 2 O 8 –CuSO 4 slurry electrolysis. As shown in Fig. 1 (a), the copper recovery in the electrolyte decreased as the current efficiency increased. From 20 to 60 mA/cm 2, copper concentration in the …

The method used to extract copper from its ores depends on the nature of the ore. Sulfide ores such as chalcopyrite ( CuFeS2 C u F e S 2) are converted to copper by a different method from silicate, carbonate or sulfate ores. Chalcopyrite (also known as copper pyrites) and similar sulfide ores are the commonest ores of copper.
