When a copper wire is exposed to air at room temperature, it becomes coated with a black oxide, CuO. If the wire is heated above a certain temperature, the black oxide is converted to a red oxide, Ct120. At a still higher temperature, the oxide coating disappears. Explain these observations in terms of the thermodynamics of the reactions 2CuO(s)Cu2O(s)+12O2(g)Cu2O(s)2Cu(s)+12O2(g) and estimate the temperatures at which the changes occur.
