How many moles of oxygen gas can 0.88 mole of hydrogen peroxide produce if decomposition is complete?

Let us assume for convenience that this reaction is at STP.( standard temperature and pressure ) Get moles O.
100 grams H2O (1 mole H2O/18.016 grams)(1 mole O/1 mole H2O)
= 5.551 moles oxygen
Now, the ideal gas law. PV = nRT
(1 atm)(Vol L) = (5.551 moles O)(0.08206 L*atm/mol*K)(298.15 K)
= 136 Liters of oxygen
-----------------------------
Now, another way using oxygens density. Density = grams/milliliters
100 grams H2O (1 mole H2O/18.016 grams)(1 mole O/1 mole H2O)(16.0 grams/1 mole O)
= 88.8 grams oxygen
--------------------------
Density of oxygen = 1.33 X 10^-3 g/ml
1.33 X 10^-3 g/ml = 88.8 grams O/ml
= 66767 ml O
= 66.7 liters of oxygen
---------------------------
A major discrepancy. You must decide on method and experimental conditions

4M / 2 = 2M
2M x 32 = 64g

∙ 11y agoSince each decomposing mole of water gives a mole of oxygen atoms, multiply 0.033 mol * 15.994 gram/mol.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoReacted with what? Do you mean a decomposition to set oxygen gas free?
30 g / 34g = x / 18g
x = 18 x 30/34 = 15.88 g water

Why does hydrogen peroxide produce bubbles on non infected wounds?
Because your blood contains an enzyme called peroxidase that explicitly exists for the purpose of catalyzing the decomposition of peroxides.
What product do hydrogen peroxide water luminol ammonium carbonate sodium carbonate copper sulfate pentahydrate produce?
The glowing solution found in glowsticks.
Is it safe to mix hydrogen peroxide with chlorine bleach?
Answer#1NO, NO, NO!!! You will cause a release of hydrogen AND oxygen. (Last time I checked that's 2 sides of the fire triangle!)Doesn't it produce Salt, Waterter and Oxygen? NaClO = H2O2 --> NaCl + H2O + O2
How does the action of hydrogen peroxide mechanically clean a wound?
Hydrogen peroxide is used much less often today, except in some OB departments in hospitals. The reason, besides stinging when used, is that it causes tissue destruction at the wound edges which can make healing slower. Hospitals use Betadine solution (an organically-bound iodine solution) to cleanse wounds. For home use I would simply keep some Neosporin ointment available. While hydrogen peroxide is relatively safe to use on a wound, it is much more suited for disinfecting inanimate surfaces. The reason for this is that the enzyme catalase is found in your blood. Catalase rapidly breaks down the hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen (the bubbles) before the peroxide really has a chance to help.
What happens when sulfur and hydrogen gas react to produce hydrogen sulfide?
It produce a toxic gas
Sodium peroxide combines with what to produce hydrogen peroxide?
Water
Why does hydrogen peroxide produce bubbles on non infected wounds?
Because your blood contains an enzyme called peroxidase that explicitly exists for the purpose of catalyzing the decomposition of peroxides.
What enzyme filled sac is found in the liver and produces hydrogen peroxide?
Catalase, however it does not produce hydrogen peroxide but rather catalyzes the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen gas.
When peroxide bubbles does it mean infection of a wound?
No, it means the peroxide is decomposing. You see this when you pour hydrogen peroxide into a wound because your body naturally produces a protein called peroxidase that catalyzes the decomposition of peroxides. This is why small amounts of hydrogen peroxide don't kill you: your body has a natural mechanism for dealing with it. Bacteria, for the most part, do not produce peroxidase, so they're highly susceptible to the effects of peroxides.
What happen when a raw potato is mixed with hydrogen peroxide?
The enzyme is catalase. It can exist without adding hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide simply activates the enzyme.
Hydrogen peroxide decomposed into simpler substances?
The hydrogen peroxide is both oxidized and reduced, to produce water and elemental oxygen.
What is the formula for the chemical reaction for oxygen and hydrogen?
2H2 + O2 -> 2H2O - reaction to produce water H2+O2-> H2O2 - reaction to produce hydrogen peroxide
What color gas is produced when mixing Hydrogen Peroxide and Liver?
Colourless, oxygen is produce by the catalytic action of the Iron in the liver on the hydrogen peroxide. 2 H2O2 -> 2 H2O + O2.
What does hydrogen peroxide and fire produce?
When Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) is heated, it produces water (H2O) and Oxygen (O2). The chemical reaction is: 2 H2O2 + heat ---> 2 H2O + O2
What household chemical react with hydrogen peroxide to produce a fire?
You think probable to acetone. The acetone peroxide is an explosive.
What is the difference between combustion and decomposition?
Combustion is where a substance reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. Example: methane burning is CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2O Decomposition is where one substance breaks down into two or more simpler substances. Example: decomp of hydrogen peroxide is 2H2O2 --> 2H2O + O2
What is the chemical formula for hydrogen peroxide decomposes to produce oxygen and water?
2H2O22H2O + O2(g)
