Very nicely explained thermite type reaction where Al metal (aluminium 0) reduces CuO (copper +2) to form Cu metal (copper 0) and Al2O3 (Al +3) after some induction period on a Bunsen burner. Check out the reaction of the young audience!!
This is the redox process involved:
3 CuO + 2 Al = 3 Cu + Al2O3
