Answer:

Actually, the nitrate ion oxidizes the copper metal to copper (II) ion while itself being transformed to NO2 gas in the process; the copper (II) ion then binds to six water molecules. Heating copper hydroxide produces copper oxide, CuO, a black solid.


prinonaghosh: can you give me the equation
tusarkantapanda: On heating blue coloured powder of copper (II) nitrate in a boiling tube, copper oxide (black), oxygen gas(X) and a brown gas Y is formed.
The chemical reaction involved and the balanced chemiacal equation is :
2Cu(NO3​)2 (S)​Heat​2CuO(S)​+4NO2(g)​+O2(g)​
 The product formed are copper oxide(black), nitrogen dioxide(brown) and oxygen gas(colourless gas).
