Extreme caution is advised with copper(II) oxide thermite. The combination is used in high-power rocketry as an instant-on motor starter for solid propellants.

The record efficiency was achieved by engineering the cell with reduced copper(II) oxide (CuO) and copper (Cu) impurities in the thin-film deposition. It showed an open-circuit voltage of 1.13 V ...

Collect approximately 2 g of copper(II) oxide on a watch glass. Using hot water from a kettle, fill 1/3 of the larger beaker with hot water. Warm the sulfuric acid beaker by letting it rest ...
