The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Components**: The question states that a mixture of hydrazine and another substance is used as a rocket propellant with a copper (II) catalyst. We need to identify the missing substance. 2. **Recall the Common Rocket Propellants**: In rocket propulsion, various combinations of chemicals are used. One well-known combination is hydrazine (N2H4) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). 3. **Determine the Missing Substance**: Given that hydrazine is mentioned, we can deduce that the missing substance in the mixture is hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). This is a common oxidizer used in combination with hydrazine. 4. **Understand the Role of the Catalyst**: Copper (II) catalyst (Cu2+) is used to facilitate the reaction between hydrazine and hydrogen peroxide, enhancing the efficiency of the propellant. 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the complete mixture used as a rocket propellant is hydrazine (N2H4) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) with a copper (II) catalyst. **Final Answer**: A mixture of hydrazine and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) with a copper (II) catalyst is used as rocket propellant. ---
