The given series of reactions begins with the decomposition of nitric acid (HNO3) to form copper nitrate (Cu(NO3)2). Copper nitrate then decomposes to form copper metal (Cu), which in turn oxidizes to form copper oxide (CuO). Finally, copper oxide reacts with sulfuric acid (H2SO4) to form copper sulfate (CuSO4).
