In the extraction of Cu, the metal is formed in the bessemer converter due to the reaction:

$\ce{Cu2S + 2Cu2O -> 6Cu + SO2 }$

$\ce{Cu2S -> 2Cu + S }$

$\ce{Fe + Cu2O -> 2Cu + FeO }$

$\ce{2Cu2O -> 4Cu + O2 }$

Answer

$\ce{2Cu2O -> 4Cu + O2 }$

Explanation

Decomposition of carbonates and hydrated oxides.
