<p>Keep in mind copper carbonate is not pure, but a mix of 50% CuCO3 copper carbonate and 50% Cu(OH)2 copper hydroxide.</p>
<p></p>
<p>So the amount of Black Copper Oxide CuO in each is the following:…</p>

<p>CuO3... yeah that would be some energetic compound. If it did exist, you probably would not want it in your studio.:-)</p>

<p>It doesn't exist. There's no such thing as Copper (VI) Oxide. It's a typo. There's such a thing as Cu2O3 (Copper (III) oxide), but I've never actually come across it at any pottery supply store. I think it's more likely that the recipe was calling for copper carb and the C dropped out. </p>
