as I said in another thread, the magnesium hydroxide has displaced the copper, you now have your original starting electrolyte and load of green Copper Hydroxide

splendid

now see if ya can work this one out, I made the copper hydroxide from the mag sulphate, washed and dried it.

I`ve been re-cycling sulphuric acid and hydrogen peroxide from a synth that only uses the sulphuric as a catalyst.

it put the green powder in , it turned red/brown and fizzed alot, anyway, it ate all that was left of the powder, and when I put raw copper wire in it, THAT STARTED fizzing too!?

now I have a lovely deep blue soln, most the raw copper has been eaten away, and sulphuric acid does NOT DO THIS!!!???

 

so what the hell have I made???

LOL
