Solution

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 :
$2 C u {(N O}_{3})_{2 (S)} - -- \to H e a t 2 C u O_{(S)} + 4 N O_{2 (g)} + O_{2 (g)}$
The product formed are copper oxide(black), nitrogen dioxide(brown) and oxygen gas(colourless gas).
