In today’s lecture, we will explore a relatively complex chemical compound, that is CuNH2NH2(NO3)2. This substance belongs to the group of complex salts of Copper and is commonly referred to as Copper DiUrea Nitrate. In English, we call this compound “Copper Diurea Nitrate”.
Regarding the molecular structure, we can easily see that this compound consists of the elements Copper (Cu), Nitrogen (N), Hydrogen (H), and Oxygen (O) with the molar ratio of 1:4:8:6 respectively. Based on the atomic mass of these elements, we can calculate the molecular mass of this compound to be approximately 254.684 g/mol.
Physically, CuNH2NH2(NO3)2 typically appears as a solid with a color ranging from white to slightly blue. This compound has no distinctive smell and is insoluble in water.
The chemical properties of CuNH2NH2(NO3)2 are quite complex and depend on environmental conditions. Under normal conditions, this compound is relatively stable and does not easily react with other substances. However, when heated or exposed to strong acidic environments, CuNH2NH2(NO3)2 can react to form other complex salts.
As for the common chemical equations of CuNH2NH2(NO3)2, we will have the opportunity to learn more in upcoming lessons.
Finally, regarding the synthesis of CuNH2NH2(NO3)2, we can perform it through the reaction between Copper Nitrate salt and Urea under appropriate temperature and pressure conditions.
