The number of grams of copper reacted is 445 grams


calculation

2Cu +O₂ → 2CuO

from equation above the mole ratio of Cu:CUO is 2:2 =1:1, therefore the moles of Cu is also= 7.00 moles


mass=moles x molar mass

from periodic table the molar mass of Cu= 63.5 g/mol


mass= 7.00 moles x 63.5 g/mol =445 grams
