Question

Write a balanced chemical equation depicting the formation of one mole of H2O2(g) from its elements in their standard states.

Answer 1

`H_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow H_2O_2(g)`

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the formation reaction of a compound is undergone when the pure elements composing it are combined, for gaseous hydrogen peroxide, gaseous diatomic hydrogen and oxygen (standard state) must be combined in order to obtain the gaseous hydrogen peroxide as shown below:

`H_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow H_2O_2(g)`

Whereas it is proved there are two hydrogen and oxygen atoms at each side of the chemical equation and therefore it is balanced.

Best regards!
