A student is given 1.1110 g of pure CuO. To recover the Cu present in the compound, the dark powdery solid was dissolved in 15.0 mL of 6 M HCl and the solution was diluted to 50.0 mL with water. How many grams of Mg is needed to displace all of the copper (II) ions from the solution? Mg(s) + Cu2+(aq) --> Cu(s) + Mg2+(aq)
