• Resumen

  • The copper mirror demonstration published recently in this Journal was improved by performing the thermal decomposition under vacuum. The extension of the demonstration prevents the deterioration of the mirror with time. Alternatively, the mirror may be protected with molten candle wax in the test tube where it was obtained.
