Explanation:

Copper(I) chloride can be conveniently prepared by heating a mixture 40 g of copper sulfate and 20 g sodium hypophosphite in about 500 ml of water to which 30 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid is added. The copper(I) chloride is deposited and can be purified in the ordinary way.

Explanation:

Anhydrous CuCl2 adopts a distorted cadmium iodide structure. In this motif, the copper centers are octahedral. Most copper(II) compounds exhibit distortions from idealized octahedral geometry due to the Jahn-Teller effect, which in this case describes the localization of one d-electron into a molecular orbital that is strongly antibonding with respect to a pair of chloride ligands. In CuCl2·2H2O, the copper again adopts a highly distorted octahedral geometry, the Cu(II) centers being surrounded by two water ligands and four chloride ligands, which bridge asymmetrically to other Cu centers.[3]
