why cu+ ion turns cu2+ in aqueous solution

Answers

Answered by anmol4032

1

Explanation:

In an aqueous medium, Cu2+ is more stable than Cu+. This is because although energy is required to remove one electron from Cu+ toCu2+, high hydration energy of Cu2+compensates for it. Therefore, Cu+ion in anaqueous solution is unstable. It disproportionates to give Cu2+ and Cu.
