उत्तर
- `underset("Copper (II) nitrate")(2"Cu"("NO"_3)_2)("s") overset "(Heat)"(->) underset "(Black)" (2"CuO"("s")) + underset(X)(4"NO"_2("g")) + "O"_2("g")`
- Brown gas (X) is nitrogen dioxide.
- It is an example of decomposition reaction.
- Nitrogen dioxide is an acidic oxide. Therefore, it dissolves in water to form an acidic solution. The pH of the solution is expected to be less than 7.

A solid substance P which is very hard is used in the construction of many buildings, especially flooring. When substance P is heated strongly, it decomposes to form another solid Q and a gas R is given out. Solid Q reacts with water with the release of a lot of heat to form a substance S. When gas R is passed into a clear solution of substance S, then a white precipitate of substance T is formed. The substance T has the same chemical composition as starting substance P.
