Copper reacts with any oxygen present as an impurity in the ethylene used to make polyethylene. The copper is regenerated when hot H2 reduces the copper(II) oxide forming the pure metal H2O. What volume of H2 at 789 torr and 241 oC is needed to reduce 65.6 g of copper(II) oxide? CuO(s) + H2(g) → Cu(s) + H2O(g)
