Making Salts Experiments: Producing Dry Pure Samples of Copper Chloride in Two Different Ways

The video tutorial explains the process of making copper chloride salts using two methods: copper carbonate and copper oxide. It covers the theory of salt formation, the equipment needed, and safety precautions. The experiments involve reacting the base with hydrochloric acid, filtering excess base, and crystallizing the salt. The video emphasizes the importance of using excess base to ensure complete reaction and provides a step-by-step guide to obtaining pure copper chloride crystals.
