Answer:2H2O2 → 2H2O + O2
Step-by-step explanation:
For a chemical equation to be balanced, the number of moles of each element at the reactant must be equal to that of the product.
According to the equation given
H2O2 → H2O + O2
There are two hydrogen atoms with two oxygen atoms at the reactant and 2hydrogen and 3oxygen at the product which shows the equation is not balanced. To balance this,
We will add 2 moles to H2O2 at the reactant and 2 moles to H2O at the product to give;
2H2O2 → 2H2O + O2 (Balanced equation)
As we can see that we now have 4 moles of Hydrogen and 4 moles of oxygen at both reactant and product making the equation balanced.
