Decomposition of Malachite

Here is what Malachite is Made Out Of

Malachite is a famous and very popular semi-precious stone. Its banded light and dark green bands are one-of-a-kind, and give it a unique ornamental quality unlike that of any other stone. The light and dark green bands are so distinctive that malachite may be one of the most easily recognized minerals by the general public. Malachite is popular in jewelry, especially Native American southwestern jewelry. The stones inlayed in silver make a nice alternative to traditional turquoise jewelry.

Malachite is a form of copper carbonate with the molecular formula Cu₂CO₃(OH)₂. When heated to around 200 ï¿½C, malachite decomposes into copper (II) oxide (CuO) and other products.

Reaction Stoichiometry

The Law of Conservation of Mass states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed. Therefore, the number of atoms of each element on the reactants side must be same as the number of atoms on the products side. This quantitative study of chemical reactions is called stoichiometry. The substances in a balanced reaction are related to each other by stoichiometric molar ratios. For example, magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid in a 1:2 stoichiometric ratio in the balanced equation below.

Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) -> MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)

The molar ratios can be used as conversion factors to find the amount (in moles) of one substance given the amount of another. For example, given the number of moles of HCl, the amount of MgCl₂ can be determined as shown below.

nMgCl2=nHCl x (1mol MgCl2) / (2mol HCL)

The molar ratios are used to determine the amount in moles. However, the amount of reactant or product is often measured in grams. Mass can be converted to moles and vice versa as shown below.

n = m / (MM)

m = n x MM

where n is the number of moles, m is the mass of the product in g, and MM is its molar mass in g/mol.

To observe the Law of Conservation of Mass, you can perform different types of chemical reactions. For example, you can use a decomposition reaction to observe one compound being broken down into two or more elements or new compounds. For this reaction to take place, you must break existing bonds within the starting compound. Different sources of energy such as heat, light, or electricity may be used. Through a decomposition reaction, you can observe that the atoms in the original compound are not destroyed but are rearranged to form simpler substances, such as elements or compounds.

About This Lab

In this lab, you will test if the relationship between malachite and copper (II) oxide is stoichiometric. To do this, you will heat a known mass of malachite to produce copper (II) oxide. You will then compare the amount of copper (II) oxide obtained experimentally with the amount of copper (II) oxide expected from the balanced equation for the decomposition reaction.
