Green solid is Copper(ii)Carbonate
When added to dilute nitric acid it reacts to form copper(ii) nitrate(blue) and carbon (iv) oxide and water which is blue in colour more addition of acid results in a deep blue complex copper ion
Cations- positively charged ions in a compound
Anions- negatively charged ions in a compound
Compound- in this case is Copper (ii) carbonate(CuCO3) Has two parts Cu+(cation) and a radical CO3^2-(anion)

(Solved)
Rates and reactions:
A form 4 student carried out an experiment with 40 cubic centimeters of 1.0M hydrochloric acid and Marble chips in order to determine rates of reaction using the following steps.
??HCL was poured to a conical flask
??Conical flask was then placed on a weighing balance
??20 grams of marble chips was then added to acid and left for reaction to proceed
??With time, Changes in mass of flask with contents was recorded
(a) State other way in which one can measure rate of reacion(1mk)
(b)(i) Sketch curve that will be obtain if mass of contents in flask is plotted against time label it as (k) (2mks)
(ii) Using the same axes sketch curve that will be obtain if powdered marble had been used(1mk)
(c) Write a chemical equation to show how reaction proceed (1mk)
