There is more than one. But one important one is that only the House of Representatives can impeach the president. Impeachment is the accusation phase, it is not conviction. The Senate tries the president after the impeachment, and the Senate decides whether or not the president is guilty. But the process must be initiated by the House.

Identify one power that is unique to the senate and explain why the framers gave the senate that power?

The Senate has the power to confirm or veto the president's Supreme Court, and other nominees. This is because unlike the House of Representatives, which allows representatives based on population size, the Senate allows the same number of representatives in every state, no matter or how large or small are their populations. This stifles any chance of large states being able to push through or veto nominations because their size allows them additional representatives. .
