Answer:

Copper(II) hydroxide is a blue solid that can decompose when heated to produce copper oxide and water vapor.

The chemical equation for this reaction is:

Cu(OH)2(s) → CuO(s) + H2O(g)

Explanation:

This equation shows that one molecule of copper(II) hydroxide decomposes to form one molecule of copper oxide and one molecule of water vapor.

The decomposition of copper(II) hydroxide is an example of a thermal decomposition reaction, where a compound breaks down into simpler substances upon heating. This reaction occurs because the heat energy provides the activation energy needed for the reaction to take place.

Copper(II) hydroxide is often used as a source of copper oxide in laboratory experiments and industrial processes. The decomposition reaction can be carried out in a furnace or using other heating methods, depending on the desired application.
