Initial mass of copper
1. Synthesis of \"Product A\":
1.069
a. Your observations indicating that a chemical reaction has occurred:
The copper/liquid fizzed a bit and turned a green/bine
Color and the more the copper dissolved, the more
the gas aboume turned wown.
b. Using the half reaction method, write a balanced redox equation for the synthesis of \"Product
A\" . The unbalanced reaction is:
Cu(s) + NO$_3$(aq) $\rightarrow$ Cu$^{2+}$(aq) + NO$_2$(g)
acidic conditions
It may be useful to refer to section 4.8 in GKBF, especially pp. 188-191 for guidance using the
half-reaction method. For full credit, show all of your work and be sure to include ion charges
and phase labels on the final balanced equation.

2. Synthesis of \"Product B\":
a. Your observations indicating that a chemical reaction has occurred:
b. Predict the products and write a balanced net ionic equation for the reaction that produced
\"Product B\". You may find it helpful to consult your solubility guidelines GKBF, section 4.7, pp.
176-177, for additional guidance regarding the identity of \"product B\". For full credit, be sure
to include ion charges and phase labels. The reactants are: Cu$^{2+}$(aq) + NaOH(aq) $\rightarrow$
