    The document describes an experiment to determine the formula of a copper carbonate compound labeled FB3. A student heats FB3 and analyzes the mass changes and products formed to deduce the formula. Based on the experimental results, the student determines that FB3 is copper(II) carbonate, CuCO3, rather than the basic copper(II) carbonate suggested by a damaged label on another sample.
