Notice its copper (I) NOT copper (II)

Write the equation of: metal oxide + oxygen --> metal oxide



You are provided with the mass of copper (I), the rest is very easy, if not look below (in white):

Step 1: Find the moles of copper (I)
Step 2: Identify the molar ratio of copper solid and copper oxide
Step 3: Convert moles
Step 4: Find mass of copper oxide


Note: U must recall a formula that relates MOLES, MASS and MOLECULAR MASS

(dont worry about limiting reagants and excess)
