Question

what will happen if copper metal is used instead of aluminium in the thermite process​

Answer 1

Answer:

a copper thermite reaction using copper oxide and elemental aluminium can be used for creating electric joints in a process called cadwelding, that produces elemental copper (it may react violently): 3 CuO + 2 Al → 3 Cu + Al2O.

Explanation:

Answer 2

if copper metal is used in place of aluminium in the thermite process then the reaction will not take place.

Explanation:

• in the thermite process aluminium powder is made to react with iron oxide resulting in the formation of Aluminium oxide and iron. in this process there is displacement of iron with aluminium. Fe2O3+ Al (powder) -----> Al2O3 + Fe

• This is because Aluminium is above iron in the metal reaction series

• however copper is below aluminium and iron in the metal reactivity series. So copper cannot displace iron from its oxide.
