Final answer:
The model that represents a molecule of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is the one with two white spheres for hydrogen and two red spheres for oxygen, which is option D.
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine which model represents a molecule of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), we must look for the model that includes two hydrogen atoms (white spheres) and two oxygen atoms (red spheres), based on the molecular formula H2O2. The options given are:
- A (red ball) (gray ball) (red ball)
- B (red ball) (red ball)
- C (white ball) (red ball) (white ball)
- D (white ball) (red ball) (red ball) (white ball)
Option D (white ball) (red ball) (red ball) (white ball) correctly represents a molecule of hydrogen peroxide, as it has two hydrogen atoms (white spheres) and two oxygen atoms (red spheres).
