Answer:

The Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court will preside over the trial.

The House of Representatives brings charges against the office holder.

The trial will be held in the Senate.

Explanation:

• Article II, Section 4 of the United States Constitution provides the provisions for the impeachment of the President, Vice President and civil officers in the country.
• It provides that The House of Representatives would have the power to bring the charges against the office holder and that the trial should be held in the Senate only after the accused have been found guilty with  a two-thirds majority vote.

• And only after securing two-thirds majority vote, the Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court will preside over the trial.
