As part of the Compounds of Copper experiment, copper(II) carbonate is acidified with hydrochloric acid to form a copper(I) chloride solution. The copper (II) chloride is then allowed to react with aluminium metal to form copper metal which is finally recovered by filtration. If the filtrate from the final filtration appears clear and greenish in colour, what does this indicate about the final yield of copper metal? O The recovery of copper will be lower due to the loss of carbonate ions. O The recovery of copper will be lower due to the loss of solid copper(II) carbonate. O The recovery of copper will be lower due to the loss of copper(II) ions. O The recovery of copper will be higher than expected. O The recovery of copper will not be affected.
